A case of orbital subperiosteal abscess (SPA) complicating a minimally displaced zygomatic complex (ZMC) fracture is reported and the aetiology and management of this potentially life-threatening condition is discussed. The value of CT scanning in staging orbital infection and determining the site of the abscess and involved paranasal sinuses is emphasised. The correct interpretation of a lateral skull radiograph with the patient brow up may have lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment.
报告了一例眶骨膜下脓肿（SPA）并发轻度移位的颧骨复合体（ZMC）骨折的病例，并讨论了这种潜在威胁生命状况的病因及治疗。强调了CT扫描在眼眶感染分期、确定脓肿部位及受累鼻窦方面的价值。正确解读患者眉弓向上的头颅侧位X线片可能会实现更早的诊断和治疗。
