[Endoscopic approach to the treatment of subperiosteal orbital abscess]

Abstract:
The treatment of orbital complications of nasosinusal processes has seen numerous modifications. Traditionally, cases with purulent collections were treated by external drainage. Currently, the introduction of new optical systems allows such complications to be approached from within the nasal cavity. We report a case of a 3-year-old girl with a subperiosteal orbital abscess secondary to ethmoiditis, which was cured by minimally aggressive endoscopic management and medical treatment.

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment
Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...
Brain Abscess l: Introduction
A brain abscess is a focal, intracerebral infection characterized by a localized collection of pus within the brain parenchyma, resulting from microbial invasion and the body’s inflammatory response. It progresses through stages: early and late cerebritis, followed by early and late capsule formation, reflecting tissue destruction, immune response, and eventual encapsulation.Etiology and PathogenesisCausative organisms vary with source and host factors, often involving polymicrobial infections,...
