Abstract:

From 1982 to 1992, 65 patients presented to our service with sinusitis complications. In this report we will analyze our clinical material with emphasis on the type of complications, clinical presentations, and radiologic findings. The most common complication was orbital (83.1%), followed by intracranial (18.5%) and bony (7.7%). There was a higher incidence of complications in the second decade of life (44.6%), and 83.2% of the cases occurred in the third decade of life. The main complaints were orbital swelling (63.1%), fever (33.8%), headache (32.3%), and rhinorrhea (21.5%). The predominant signs were eyelid swelling (73.8%) and rhinorrhea (64.6%). The most frequent radiologic findings (x-ray, CT, MRI) were pansinusitis (40%), maxilloethmoidal sinusitis (24.6%), and maxillary sinusitis (13.8%). All patients were treated with intravenous antibiotics, and surgery was performed in 50.8% of the patients. Almost all patients (98.5%) had a good outcome, and one patient died (cavernous sinus thrombosis). Complicated sinusitis can be a life-threatening condition. CT and MRI are a great aid in the diagnosis of these complications.

Abstract:

Introduction. Les complications oculo-orbitaires des sinusites chez l'enfant sont fréquentes et peuvent engager le pronostic visuel et même vital. Leur prise en charge doit être urgente, médicale et parfois chirurgicale. Le but de ce travail est d’étudier à travers trois observations, les différents tableaux cliniques et para cliniques des complications oculo-orbitaires des sinusites chez l’enfant ainsi que leur traitement. Patients & méthodes. Nous rapportons les observations de trois enfants, deux filles et un garçon, âgés entre 6 et 12 ans, hospitalisés dans le cadre de l’urgence. Deux patients présentaient un syndrome inflammatoire orbitaire unilatéral avec exophtalmie importante et le 3ème cas un état de cécité avec céphalée et vomissement chez qui l’examen ophtalmologique a révélé une névrite optique bilatérale œdémateuse. L’imagerie (scanner et IRM) a montré une sinusite antérieure dans les deux premiers cas et une sinusite sphénoïdale isolée dans le dernier cas. L’examen ORL a confirmé la sinusite dans les deux premiers cas et était normal dans le dernier cas. Tous les patients ont bénéficié d’une tri- antibiothérapie générale associée secondairement à une corticothérapie systémique. Un patient a nécessité un drainage chirurgical. Résultats. L’évolution à trois mois était bonne pour les trois patients : réduction presque complète de l’exophtalmie et récupération de l’acuité visuelle chez le dernier cas. Discussion et conclusion. Les complications orbitaires des sinusites sont assez fréquentes. Chez l’enfant, la complication de l’atteinte des sinus antérieurs (ethmoïdal et frontal) sont responsables d’un tableau clinique bruyant avec une cellulite orbitaire. Cependant, la complication de la sinusite sphénoïdale est rare mais grave, ses manifestations cliniques sont pauvres et trompeuses. Le diagnostic et le traitement doivent être précoces pour éviter la complication redoutée qui est la thrombophlébite du sinus caverneux.

Abstract:

AbstractThe complications of sinusitis have been well described. The most common classifications used for orbital complications have been that of Chandler et al. (1970) and Moloney et al. (1987). With the ready availability of high-resolution computed tomography (CT) scanners, limitations of these classifications have become apparent. The aims of this study were to determine the relative frequency of the various complications associated with acute sinusitis, to determine which groups of sinuses were most frequently involved and to correlate the orbital signs with a new proposed classification of orbital complications. Over a five-year period, 87 consecutive patients were admitted with acute sinusitis. Sixty-three patients (72.4 per cent) had one or more complications. When orbital complications were classified under the proposed classification, all patients with proptosis and/or decreased eye movement had post-septal infection. Visual impairment occurred only in the post-septal group. Most complications had a combination of sinus involvement with the maxillary/ethmoid/frontal combination being the most common. The authors propose a modification of Moloney's classification for orbital complications of acute sinusitis that allows a clear differentiation between pre- and post-septal infection and a radiological differentiation to be made between cellulitis/phlegmon and abscess formation. The latter is of importance when a decision is made on whether surgical intervention is appropriate or not.

Abstract:

Subciliary and transconjunctival approaches are commonly used to enter the orbital floor. Although both surgical approaches have been used for decades, there is no consensus regarding the most appropriate incision to prevent postoperative lower eyelid complications. The aim of this study was to compare the frequencies of lower eyelid complications after subciliary versus transconjunctival approaches to orbital floor fractures. The investigator implemented a retrospective cohort study and enrolled a sample consisting of subjects who had orbital floor repair. The predictor variable was two different surgical methods, subciliary or transconjunctival approch. The primary outcome variable was postoperative lower eyelid complications (ectropion, entropion, and eyelid retraction). Other variables were demographic backgrounds, anatomical consideration, or time to surgery. The samples were composed of 346 patients (98 [28.3%] females; 225 [65%] underwent a subciliary approach) with a mean age of 42.7 ± 21.1 years. The subciliary approach was significantly linked to the higher rates of ectropion and the lower rates of entropion at 7 days and 6 months postoperatively. There was no statistically significant difference in the frequency of eyelid retraction between both groups. In the setting of orbital floor fractures, these results suggest that the use of the subciliary approach increases the frequency of ectropion, while the transconjunctival approach increases the frequency of entropion. Consequently, the selection should be based on an individual patient basis and surgeon’s preference.

Abstract:

Objective: This review aims to investigate and compare the effectiveness of endoscopic drainage techniques against external drainage techniques for the treatment of orbital abscesses, subperiosteal abscesses and cavernous sinus thrombosis as a complication of rhinosinusitis. Introduction: Transnasal endoscopic drainage and external drainage techniques have been used in the management of subperiosteal orbital abscesses secondary to rhinosinusitis. Each of these approaches has its own advantages and disadvantages, with extensive literature describing each technique separately. However, there is a lack of guidance in the studies on assessing and comparing the safety, effectiveness and suitability of these techniques. This review aims to compare the effectiveness of these techniques based on outcome measures in the literature such as: length of postoperative hospital stay, rate of revision surgery and complication rates. Inclusion criteria: Eligible studies included people of all ages diagnosed with subperiosteal abscess, orbital abscess or cavernous sinus thrombosis (Chandler stages III–V) secondary to rhinosinusitis disease, who have also undergone drainage via either an endoscopic approach, an external approach or a combined surgical approach. Methods: A comprehensive search of both published and unpublished literature was performed to uncover studies meeting the inclusion criteria. Reference lists of studies included in final analyses were also manually searched. Two reviewers screened studies and a third reviewer was engaged to resolve any disagreements. Studies were, where possible, pooled in statistical meta-analysis, with heterogeneity of data being assessed using the standard Chi-squared and I2 tests. Results: This review identified nine studies (of limited quality) assessing either endoscopic, external or combined surgical drainage techniques for subperiosteal orbital abscesses. Each of these techniques encompassed a wide variety of surgical approaches, with some variation. Recurrence rates were lower in the combined drainage group, with comparative meta-analysis with external drainage not indicating a statistically significant higher risk of recurrence with external drainage (RR 0.25, 95% CI 0.05-1.29 p = 0.10). Single group analysis of recurrence showed that the overall rate of recurrence was much lower in the combined group (4%, 95% CI 0.08-17.12) in comparison with the external (24%, 95% CI 11-40) or endoscopic groups (26%, 95% CI 10-45). Analysis of total hospitalisation revealed endoscopic drainage was associated with longer total hospitalisation than external drainage, although this difference was not significant (mean difference 0.10 days, 95% CI -4.76 to 4.96 p=0.97). Combined drainage was associated with a slightly longer total hospitalisation than external drainage (mean difference 0.94 days, 95% CI -0.79 to 2.67 p = 0.29). Combined drainage was associated with a longer total hospitalisation than endoscopic drainage (mean difference -0.70 days, 95% CI -3.48 to 2.07 p = 0.62). Post-operative stay analysis revealed longer post-operative stay in the external drainage group when compared to the combined drainage group (mean difference -0.16 days, 95% CI -1.15-0.83 p = 0.76). Conclusion: Imminent treatment of subperiosteal orbital abscesses via medical and surgical treatment methods is vital, given the high morbidity associated with the disease. This review identified nine studies (of limited quality) assessing either endoscopic, external or combined surgical drainage techniques for subperiosteal orbital abscesses. Each of these techniques encompassed a wide variety of surgical approaches with some variation. All drainage strategies have acceptable outcomes in relation to recurrence rates, total hospitalisation (days), post-operative stay (days) and complication rate. It is important to clinically identify the presence of subperiosteal orbital abscess, organise for an immediate computed tomography scan of the orbit and sinuses, and commence intravenous antibiotics quickly prior to deciding whether surgery is required or not. This review supports the view that surgeons should choose the appropriate surgical technique based on what they are comfortable and familiar with and what would be the safest option for the patient.

Abstract:

Introduction:The cavernous sinus is a venous plexus delimited by the dura mater and sited at the base of skull, laterally to the sella turcica and to the sphenoid sinus. The cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) is a serious illness that may result from infection of any tissue drained by the cavernous sinus (septic thrombosis). Septic thrombosis (ST) may occur through the suppurative process by the level of the orbit, of the upper half of the face or paranasal sinuses , constituting a critical complication of sinusitis. Objectives: To verify the association between cavernous sinus thrombosis and sphenoid sinusitis in children, in the bibliographic productions of the last 10 years. Methods:This is an integrative literature review, with a search carried out in the database of the Medical Literature and Retrieval System onLine (MEDLINE), using a combination of the following Health Sciences Descriptors (DECS): “Sphenoid Sinusitis” and “Thrombosis” And “ Cavernous sinus” in “ Children ”. Incomplete studies were excluded from the research, carried out before 2012, totaling 7 bibliographic studies for detailed analysis. Results:CST can result from infection of any tissue drained from the cavernous sinus. This includes the face, tonsils, soft palate, teeth and ears.Only 15% of cases of CST in patients up to 12 years of age, originated from the paranasal sinuses. However, more recent studies advance that sinusitis is currently the most common etiology. When the sinuses are the cause of CST, the sphenoid sinus emerged as the most common primary source of infection predisposing to CST, since it has important anatomical relationships with the cavernous sinus. Streptococcus has been reported as the most common organism associated with sphenoid sinusitis. Conclusion:Although CTS is a rare clinical condition, acute and persistent sphenoid sinusitis can progress to such a condition, despite medical treatment. The main support of treatment includes early diagnosis, aggressive intravenous antibiotics and appropriate surgical treatment.
