Suppurative complications of infective sinusitis.

B J Conlon1, A Curran, C V Timon.   

Abstract

We report three cases of suppurative sinusitis that presented to our casualty department over a one week period. All three patients suffered complications of the disease secondary to extension of the inflammatory process beyond the bony confines of the sinus. None of the patients had previous history of sinus disease. We wish to remind the clinician that such complications still exist and we highlight the necessity of rapid diagnosis and early intervention in the management of complicated sinus disease.
