  • Title: Periorbital cellulitis.
    Author: Robie G, O'Neal R, Kelsey DS.
    Journal: J Pediatr Ophthalmol; 1977; 14(6):354-63. PubMed ID: 604442.
    Abstract:
    Sixty-seven cases of orbital cellulitis from BGSM are reported and 247 cases from the literature reviewed. Staphylococcus aureus was the predominant pathogen except in the age group from three months to three years where a significant number of cases yielded Hemophilus influenzae and Diplococcus pneumoniae. The frequent association of paranasal sinus involvement and orbital cellulitis has been confirmed. Orbital cellulitis is a multifaceted disease which, for proper management, requires close cooperation among pediatricians, ophthalmologists, and nursing service as a multidisciplinary approach for optimal therapy and decreased frequency of complications and sequelae.
