Özet
The aim of this study is to describe the management of three different complications associated with rhinosinusitis which developed
simultaneously in the same patient. A 27-year-old man visited the emergency department with complaints of headache and swelling
of the left eye. He had sustained a blunt head injury 1 month earlier. He was diagnosed with preseptal cellulitis, subdural abscess,
and Pott’s puffy tumor which was shown to be a result of rhinosinusitis after physical examination and imaging. After surgical and
medical treatment, he was followed up without further complications. Complications of acute rhinosinusitis are very uncommon in
the antibiotic era. Patients may suffer life-threatening outcomes if complications develop. A prompt multidisciplinary approach must
be immediately established by otorhinolaryngologists, ophthalmologists and other specialists of relevance in order to diagnose and
treat life-threatening complications.
