An 8-year-old boy with a Pott's puffy tumor.
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology 2003 September
An 8-year old boy with a history of trauma, sinusitis and a swelling of the frontal bone with somnolence was diagnosed with a Pott's puffy tumor (PPT). Minimal invasive surgical intervention was performed together with a strict regimen of antibiotic therapy. In this case debridement of the frontal bone was not necessary. Serial X-ray imaging of the skull showed complete ossification of the frontal bone lesion. Early diagnosis using thorough radiological evaluation is necessary to effectuate the proper therapeutic approach. For this reason, a patient with a forehead swelling and a history of trauma and/or sinusitis should be suspected for a PPT.
