Клинический случай риногенного орбитального осложнения

Abstract

The article discusses a clinical case of such a rather formidable rhinogenic intraorbital complication as orbital cellulitis against the background of stomatogenic sinusitis. The presented clinical case of successful treatment of a patient demonstrates how the correctly chosen treatment tactics and timely surgical treatment contributed to the preservation of not only vision but also the patient’s life. Objective. To show a clinical observation of the development of orbital complications against the background of chronic apical periodontitis. Materials and methods. The evaluation of the results of the study, including video endoscopy of the nasal cavity, CT scan of the paranasal sinuses, was carried out. Data were obtained on the prevalence of the process that caused not only the inflammatory process in the paranasal sinuses but also the destruction of the medial and upper bone walls of the right maxillary sinus with the formation of an inflammatory infiltrate in the retrobulbar space. Access to the maxillary sinus was discussed, the patient was consulted by an ophthalmologist, maxillofacial surgeon, and surgical intervention was performed.
