An 8-year old boy with a history of trauma, sinusitis and a swelling of the frontal bone with somnolence was diagnosed with a Pott's puffy tumor (PPT). Minimal invasive surgical intervention was performed together with a strict regimen of antibiotic therapy. In this case debridement of the frontal bone was not necessary. Serial X-ray imaging of the skull showed complete ossification of the frontal bone lesion. Early diagnosis using thorough radiological evaluation is necessary to effectuate the proper therapeutic approach. For this reason, a patient with a forehead swelling and a history of trauma and/or sinusitis should be suspected for a PPT. 相似文献

Between the complications of frontal sinusitis orbital or intracranial are the most frequent encountered (meningitis, abscesses and empyemas). All are secondary to thrombophlebitis of veins communicating the intracranial cavity with the frontal sinus. Frontal osteomyelitis secondary to sinusitis, the so-called Pott's puffy tumor, is a much more rare aftermath in the antibiotic epoch. Pott's puffy tumor must be suspected in patients with frontal headache followed by frontal oedema. Concerning the diagnosis clinical suspicion is essential and must be settled throughout computerized tomography and/or magnetic resonance or even bone scintiscan. The paper report 2 cases, one an orbital periostitis, at the beginning of the disease, which was recovered with medical antibiotic treatment and another one, an osteomyelitis somewhat evolved requiring surgery through frontal osteoplasty. Perusal of etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of this complication. 相似文献

Pott's puffy tumor is a serious extracranial complication of frontal sinusitis. The formation of this entity is facilitated by the close anatomic relationship between the paranasal sinuses and the frontal bone. Furthermore, the rich diploic venous drainage of the region enhances the spread of the infection. We report on successful functional endoscopic frontal sinusotomy in a series of four cases of Pott's puffy tumor following acute frontal sinusitis, between the years 1994 and 1997. We emphasize the advantages of this approach over the external approaches as follows: the technique treats the causative source of the disease, the morbidity is low, and it avoids facial cosmetic trauma and sequela. 相似文献

Pott's puffy tumor is an infrequent entity characterized by subperiosteal abscess associated with frontal bone osteomyelitis. It is usually seen as a complication of frontal sinusitis. Although cases, in patients of all ages have been reported, teenagers are the most frequently affected. Despite modern methods of diagnosis and treatment, 9 new cases in children, have been published in the last 7 years. This paper describes the case of 13-year-old boy with subperiosteal abscess resulting from exacerbation of chronic frontal sinusitis. Complete resolution occurred with an intensive antibiotic regime and drainage of frontal sinus and subperiosteal abscess. 相似文献

Pott's puffy tumour is a rare clinical entity in this era of antibiotics. It is usually seen as a complication of frontal sinusitis. This is the first report of Pott's puffy tumour presenting as a complication of maxillary sinusitis. This is also the first reported case of Pott's puffy tumour treated with debridement and gentamicin beads. We discuss the clinical presentation and successful treatment of this rare disease. 相似文献

Despite advances in the diagnosis and treatment of acute frontal sinusitis, there is still significant occurrence of intracranial complications. Urgent surgical evacuation of any intracranial collection is required; however, the surgical management of the associated sinusitis remains controversial. Ten patients presented to this department over a 12-month period with subdural empyema secondary to acute frontal sinusitis. Four patients had a coexisting Pott's puffy tumour and one patient had a periorbital abscess. Each patient was managed using a multidisciplinary approach. A frontal sinus trephine/drain +/- antral washout was performed at the same time as craniotomy with evacuation of the empyema. With this approach only two patients suffered long-term morbidity in our series, in the form of persistent neurological or cognitive deficit. No patient required a definitive sinus procedure. This study emphasizes the need for the early assessment and intervention of patients with an intracranial complication secondary to acute frontal sinusitis. Further assessment of the underlying sinus disease is indicated during outpatient follow up after the acute episode. 相似文献

Pott's puffy tumour is a subperisosteal abscess associated with a cranial osteomyelitis. A rare consequence of trauma or frontal sinusitis, it is often an indicator of intracranial complications. At 3 years of age, the patient described is the youngest reported with this condition. The occurrence of such pathology in pre-adolescent children is very rare and this case is one of three reported in the English literature in the post-antibiotic era. 相似文献

Use of the 70-degree diamond burr in the management of complicated frontal sinus disease 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Management of frontal sinus disease may require drill-out of bone in the frontal recess for access, ventilation, and drainage of the sinus cavity; removal of osteitic foci; or resection of neoplastic tissue. Technological advances, particularly burrs with angles of 70 degrees and stereotactic navigational imaging, offer new opportunities to provide access and minimize trauma. The preliminary study evaluates the safety and efficacy of such minimally invasive approaches. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective review. METHODS: The authors describe the use of a 70-degree diamond burr in a series of 10 patients with complicated frontal sinus disease who underwent endoscopic frontal sinusotomy under stereotactic imaging guidance. RESULTS: The diagnoses consisted of frontal sinus mucocele (n = 4), chronic frontal sinusitis (n = 1), Pott's puffy tumor after frontoethmoid fracture (n = 1), and recurrent inverting papilloma (n = 4). Partial septectomy was required in 6 of 10 patients. No complications were attributable to the drill-out procedure, despite a pre-existing frontoethmoid bony dehiscence in 6 of 10 patients. One patient had a CSF leak during removal of tumor from the skull base. One patient required revision frontal sinusotomy 10 months after the initial procedure, and another required further surgery for residual inverting papilloma on the medial orbital wall. All frontal sinusotomies were patent at last follow-up (mean period, 9.3 mo). CONCLUSION: Extended endoscopic frontal sinusotomy may be necessary in the management of complicated frontal sinus inflammatory disease and inverting papilloma. The 70-degree diamond burr is a safe and effective tool for access to the frontal recess. Complication rates appear to be similar to those for other extended frontal sinusotomy approaches. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Frontal sinus obliteration (FSO) traditionally has represented the final stage in the algorithm for difficult to manage frontal sinus disease. In addition, FSO has been used in selected cases of frontal sinus trauma. However, this procedure has been associated with failure in 5-10% of cases. Advances in surgical instrumentation and image-guided surgical navigation have permitted endoscopic management of these failures. METHODS: Eleven patients presenting with failure of a previously performed FSO were managed endoscopically with the assistance of image-guided surgical navigation. RESULTS: Initial frontal sinus pathology included chronic inflammatory disease in six patients and frontal sinus trauma in two patients. Two patients underwent obliteration after neurosurgical frontal craniotomy and one patient underwent obliteration after curettage of a frontal sinus ossifying fibroma. Frontal sinuses were obliterated with fat in eight cases, bone chips in two cases, and bone cement in one case. The mean time interval to FSO failure was 11.1 years (range, 4 months-35 years). The etiology of failure included mucocele in eight patients, chronic frontal sinusitis in two patients, and Pott's puffy tumor in one patient. All 11 patients were managed endoscopically, of which 3 patients underwent a trans-septal frontal sinusotomy. Two patients required revision endoscopic surgery, but all were patent at last follow-up (mean, 14.8 months). CONCLUSION: Endoscopic management of failed FSO may be performed safely. These approaches are viable alternatives to open revision procedures in the management of failed FSO. 相似文献

This case report describes a child who developed Pott's puffy tumor and was treated at the Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. In addition to a discussion of a case, a review of the literature was completed on this topic describing the typical embryology and development of the frontal sinus, and the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of Pott's puffy tumor. The patient was a 23-month-old boy who developed Pott's puffy tumor after recovery from influenza. The patient presented to the hospital with progressing edema of the unilateral eye that spread bilaterally within a few days. A CT scan demonstrated pansinusitis, developed frontal sinuses, right periorbital cellulitis, and medial forehead subperiosteal abscess. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery and transcutaneous abscess drainage were urgently performed and the patient made a full recovery following a course of ertapenem and levofloxacin. The presence of a developed frontal sinus in a 23-month-old is an unexpected radiologic finding. This case represents the youngest patient reported in the literature to develop this rare complication of frontal sinusitis. 相似文献

The Pott’s puffy tumor is a subperiosteal abscess of the frontal bone associated with osteomyelitis. The purpose of this article
is to alert the physician to the severe complications of this entity. The records of six patients were reviewed retrospectively.
There were four adults and two adolescents. Nasal endoscopy showed edematous, polypoid mucosa in middle meatus in three and
nasal polyps in the rest. At initial admission, two had orbital subperiosteal abscess, but normal cranial CT findings. During
hospitalization, three experienced frontal lobe abscess and one frontal cerebritis. Endoscopic sinus surgery was performed
in all with external drainage of Pott’s puffy tumor in addition to antibiotherapy. Three patients underwent craniotomy/craniectomy
for removal of frontal lobe abscesses. One patient with frontal lobe abscess died. Pott’s puffy tumor may result in potentially
dangerous intracranial complications. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to reduce morbidity and mortality. 相似文献

Despite improvements in antibiotic therapies and surgical techniques, sinusitis still carries a risk of serious and potentially fatal complications. We examined the charts of 82 patients who had been admitted to the University of Mississippi Medical Center between Jan. 1, 1985, and Dec. 31, 1999, for treatment of complications of sinusitis. Of these 82 patients, 43 had orbital complications and 39 had intracranial complications. In this article, we describe our findings in those patients who had intracranial complications (our findings in patients with orbital complications will be reported in a future article). The most common intracranial complication was meningitis; others were epidural abscess, subdural abscess, intracerebral abscess, Pott's puffy tumor, and superior sagittal sinus thrombosis. Most patients with meningitis were treated with drug therapy only; patients with abscesses were generally treated with intravenous antibiotics and drainage of the affected sinus and the abscess. Advancements in antibiotic therapy, endoscopic surgery, imaging studies, and computer-assisted surgery have helped improve outcomes. Management of these patients should be undertaken immediately and is best achieved via a multidisciplinary approach, involving the otolaryngologist, neurosurgeon, radiologist, anesthesiologist, infection disease specialist, pediatrician, internist, and others. 相似文献

Objective To present an unusual case of two uncommon cranial complications of frontal sinusitis: Pott's puffy tumor and epidural abscess arising from frontal sinusitis of dental origin, and also two systemic complications of sinusitis: septicemia and empyema, all occurring in an immunocompetent patient. Study Design A 21‐year‐old man presented with a scalp swelling and epidural abscess. Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomographic scans revealed unilateral opacification of the frontal sinus and an epidural abscess with a direct connection to the scalp abscess. Further history revealed that his symptoms occurred coincidentally with a tooth extraction 2 months before, and he was hospitalized soon after the tooth extraction for sepsis and a lung abscess. Methods A combined neurosurgical and otolaryngologic approach was required to treat the sinusitis and the associated epidural and scalp abscess. Results Cultures returned as Streptococcus intermedius from all three sites. The patient was free of disease at the 3‐month follow‐up. Conclusions Odontogenic maxillary sinusitis is well documented; however, there is little reported of frontal sinusitis arising from dental disease. The prevalence of sinusitis of dental origin will be reviewed, including the microbiology of this particularly virulent organism that persisted despite earlier treatment with ampicillin. Also, the current thoughts on management of these cases will be discussed with particular reference to local therapy for sinusitis in addition to systemic treatment with antibiotics. 相似文献

A case of Pott's puffy tumour in a diabetic patient with renal failure is reported. The patient did not respond to intravenous antibiotics and further investigation revealed that the patient had mucormycosis. As far as we are aware, this is the first case of Pott's puffy tumour due to mucormycosis to be reported in the literature. 相似文献

Two cases are reported of intracranial complications of sinusitis, unusual nowadays. They were caused by osteomyelitis of the frontal bone following chronic frontal sinusitis. These cases were distinguished by complete destruction of the posterior wall of the sinus involved: in one of the cases there was an acute central neurological disturbance caused by a cerebral abscess; in the other patient, who came for consultation because of a Pott's Puffy tumour, a sizeable epidural abscess was found. 相似文献

Endoscopic sinus surgery for mucoceles: a viable alternative 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Functional endoscopic surgery affords the potential for dramatically reducing operative morbidity of surgery for paranasal sinus mucoceles by offering a minimally invasive approach under local anesthesia. Following surgery, direct endoscopic visualization of the area enables accurate follow-up. Unlike sinus obliteration, the ability to accurately image the sinus by CT is also preserved. This paper presents our preliminary experience with 18 mucoceles in which endoscopic sinus surgery was attempted. Five patients had preoperative proptosis and diplopia, three had Pott's puffy tumor and five had erosion of the posterior table of the frontal sinus. Fifteen patients were satisfactorily treated endoscopically, two lesions could not be satisfactorily approached and required external surgery, and one patient had persistent disease. No disease recurrence has been noted to date with endoscopic follow-up of up to 42 months. 相似文献

Osteomyelitis of the frontal bone secondary to frontal sinusitis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Osteomyelitis of the frontal bone is becoming an increasingly rare complication of frontal sinusitis. We present seven cases that represent the largest series published in the last 50 years. Three cases were associated with intracranial involvement. Osteomyelitis should enter the differential diagnosis when there is a fluctuant swelling on the scalp, or if there is a discharging fistula. Treatment requires aggressive surgery to remove all sequestra in combination with long-term antibiotic therapy. Intracranial complications should be excluded by imaging and treated simultaneously if present. 相似文献

Frontal sinusitis, or inflamatory complications of sinusitis, may occur as a consequence of frontal craniotomy when the sinus has been entered during the craniotomy. This may happen particularly during surgery to treat an aneurysm or to excise a tumor in the sellar area. These complications may also occur if the sinus is entered during routine craniotomy when the sinus is high or asymmetrical, or during reduction of frontal bone fractures. This presentation describes the etiology of such inflammatory complications and describes the approach to treatment of such complications, as well as outlining their prevention. 相似文献

Despite increasing advances in endonasal frontal sinus surgery, frontal sinus obliteration (FSO) is sometimes necessary after failure of other surgical techniques. This procedure has been reported with autologous tissue or synthetic material, but few studies have reported results with autologous calvarial bone graft. The aim of this study was to report our experience with osteoplastic FSO calvarial bone graft. A retrospective review was performed on 11 patients operated upon for FSO with autologous calvarial bone graft from 2005 to 2011. Obliteration was indicated for chronic symptomatic frontal sinusitis with nasofrontal duct stenosis in five cases of nasal polyposis with a history of endoscopic sinus surgery, two cases of frontal trauma, two of surgery for frontal inverted papilloma and two of chronic frontal purulent sinusitis. Ten patients had a history of one or two previous functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) procedures. On outcome assessment, eight patients had no residual complaints after FSO and all patients showed improvement in symptoms. Frontal sinus obliteration with autologous calvarial bone graft showed low donor site morbidity and good aesthetic results. This procedure should be considered in severe frontal sinusitis after repeated FESS procedures have failed. 相似文献

The administration of antibiotics in otitis media alters the natural course of the disease process. If the antibiotics used are inappropriate, or if dosage or duration of treatment is inadequate, an imminent intracranial complication may be masked. A case of latent mastoiditis presenting with Pott's puffy tumour is described. 相似文献
