Abstract
Thirteen orbital computed tomographic (CT) scans were obtained in 12 patients with postseptal (orbital) cellulitis. Sinus radiographs, which were also obtained, were not helpful in diagnosis or management. The location and extent of the inflammatory process was accurately demonstrated with axial CT scans in all cases. A protocol using CT in the management of postseptal cellulitis is proposed.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
