    Author: Caulley L, Corsten G, Hong P.
    Journal: Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol; 2012 Apr; 76(4):606-8. PubMed ID: 22336174.
    Abstract:
    Recurrent periorbital cellulitis is a rare complication of sinus disease. We present a 4-month-old boy with bilateral recurrent periorbital cellulitis and radiological evidence of bilateral bony dehiscence of the lamina papyracea. To our knowledge, this is the youngest documented presentation of recurrent periorbital cellulitis. As well, only unilateral cases have been reported in the past. In addition to the clinical case report, we reviewed the current literature available regarding recurrent periorbital cellulitis.
