Pott's puffy tumor is a rare but serious complication that can occur years after neurosurgical procedures. In elderly diabetic patients, immunosuppression may obscure symptoms and delay diagnosis. Clinicians should maintain high suspicion when evaluating forehead swelling in such populations to ensure timely imaging and prevent intracranial complications.
波特氏浮肿性肿瘤是一种罕见但严重的并发症,可在神经外科手术后数年发生。在老年糖尿病患者中,免疫抑制可能会掩盖症状并延迟诊断。临床医生在评估这类人群的前额肿胀时应保持高度怀疑,以确保及时进行影像学检查并预防颅内并发症。
