2013
Se analiza el caso de un nino con sinusitis frontal, con una forma de presentacion poco habitual que, ademas, padecia una complicacion intracraneal grave. Las complicaciones intracraneales de las sinusitis son raras en cerebrales y trombosis del seno cavernoso. Se hace hincapie en la importancia del diagnostico precoz y de un tratamiento empirico inicial adecuado para evitar las posibles complicaciones. Asimismo, cabe enfatizar que una vez producidas estas, requieren un tratamiento medico-quirurgico intensivo para su resolucion. We present the case of a child with frontal sinusitis, who also suffers from a severe intracranial disease. Although sinusitis intracranial issues are rare nowadays, they include a wide range of serious entities such as meningitis, brain abscesses and thrombosis of the cavernous sinus. We emphasize the importance of early diagnosis and an adequate initial empirical treatment to prevent possible complications. Once they are presented, an aggressive surgical medical treatment is required for its resolution.
