Dacryoadenitis, a condition defined as inflammation of the lacrimal gland, has many etiologies; rarely is it associated with a lacrimal gland abscess. In this article, a 7-year-old African American boy was diagnosed with a lacrimal gland abscess secondary to oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (ORSA). The incidence of conditions arising from ORSA, a term used interchangeably with methicillin-resistant S aureus (MRSA), is reportedly on the rise in our population over the past decade. Recognition of atypical pathogens, initiation of timely appropriate-spectrum pharmaceuticals, and conservative follow-up are imperative in treating and preventing potentially vision-threatening sequelae of dacryoadenitis.
泪腺炎是一种定义为泪腺炎症的病症，有多种病因；它很少与泪腺脓肿相关。在本文中，一名7岁的非裔美国男孩被诊断为继发于耐苯唑西林金黄色葡萄球菌（ORSA）的泪腺脓肿。据报道，在过去十年中，我们人群中由ORSA（该术语与耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）可互换使用）引起的病症发生率呈上升趋势。识别非典型病原体、及时启动合适谱的药物治疗以及保守随访对于治疗和预防泪腺炎可能威胁视力的后遗症至关重要。
