We present a case of idiopathic orbital inflammation (IOI) in a pediatric patient that was initially diagnosed as orbital cellulitis. A seven-year-old female presented with painful right upper eyelid swelling and ptosis and an upper respiratory tract infection. Ruling out secondary causes that are sight and life-threatening conditions is prudent. Therefore, a multidisciplinary approach is crucial in the diagnosis and management of IOI. Consulting with different specialties aids in diagnosing and managing the condition, and thus optimizing patient care.
我们报告一例小儿特发性眼眶炎症(IOI)病例,该病例最初被诊断为眼眶蜂窝织炎。一名7岁女性出现右侧上睑疼痛性肿胀、上睑下垂及上呼吸道感染。排除有视力威胁和危及生命的继发性病因是审慎的做法。因此,多学科方法在IOI的诊断和管理中至关重要。与不同专科进行会诊有助于诊断和处理该疾病,从而优化患者护理。
