Orbital Cellulitis and Frontal Epicranial Empyema Secondary to Pansinusitis: A Case Report.

Orbital cellulitis is a relatively uncommon complication of sinusitis. Its association with intracranial complications is rare. We present the case of a 36-year-old patient with no associated risk factors who presented with a four-day history of headache, periorbital inflammation, suppuration, and necrosis. A computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a frontal epidural abscess and signs of chronic pansinusitis. This case highlights the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion for complications of this condition and the necessity of a multidisciplinary approach in managing this rare complication.
