A 48-year–old woman presented to the emergency department with a
2-
week history of right headache and orbital pain, with worsening
symptoms of right upper eye lid swelling and erythema during the
last 4-days. She denied any visual disturbance and weakness. She
was
initially managed by ophthalmologist with intravenous antibiotics
(amoxicillin-clavulanate, clindamycin) and mannitol, but symptoms
had not improved. Nasal endoscopic examination showed
mucopurulent
discharge from right middle meatus. The orbital computed
tomography
revealed a superiorly-based subperiosteal orbital abscess and
significant paranasal sinusitis coexisting with suspicious fungal
sinusitis. The abscess pocket was accurately pointed out through
image-guided endoscopic view with the ostium seeker tracker.
After
removal of affected ethmoidal cells, bony dehiscence of lamina
papyracea was identified. We performed the complete drainage of
subperiosteal orbital abscess with normal saline irrigation and
eyeball massage. One week postoperatively, the patient was
relieved
from the orbital pain and swelling without any sequelae. |
