Sinusitis is a common childhood infection with potential for rare intracranial complications. These neurologic sequelae can lead to serious morbidity and mortality if not addressed promptly. We describe a case of suspected sinusitis in a 13-year-old male complicated by a superior sagittal sinus thrombosis along with subdural and epidural empyemas.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
