We report three cases of suppurative sinusitis that presented to our casualty department over a one week period. All three patients suffered complications of the disease secondary to extension of the inflammatory process beyond the bony confines of the sinus. None of the patients had previous history of sinus disease. We wish to remind the clinician that such complications still exist and we highlight the necessity of rapid diagnosis and early intervention in the management of complicated sinus disease.
我们报告了在一周内就诊于我院急诊科的三例化脓性鼻窦炎病例。所有三名患者均因炎症过程超出鼻窦的骨边界而出现该疾病的并发症。所有患者既往均无鼻窦疾病史。我们希望提醒临床医生,此类并发症仍然存在,并且强调在复杂鼻窦疾病的管理中快速诊断和早期干预的必要性。
