Keywords: | Child;Orbital cellulitis;Petrositis;Subdural empyema | Issue Date: | 1-Dec-2011 | Journal: | HealthMED | Abstract: | Subdural empyema is a rare intracranial infection that requires prompt diagnosis and adequate therapy. The treatment most frequently includes surgical procedure and antimicrobial therapy. There are reports on cases of subdural empyema associated with orbital cellulitis or petrositis; however, simultaneous occurrence of all three complications has not been reported in the available literature. We presented the case of subdural empyema associated with orbital cellulitis and petrositis in a ten-year old boy. Antimicrobial therapy without surgical treatment was administered resulting in a recovery without sequelae. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/12560 | ISSN: | 18402291 |
