Abstract:
:Rhinosinusitis is a very common childhood condition. Osteomyelitis is an unusual complication, which mainly occurs in toddlers and young children. The most frequent etiologic agent is Staphylococcus aureus. Iniatially, it is characterized by fever, low eyelid edema, unilateral rhinorrhea and ipsilateral palatine edema. Subsequently, abscesses develop in the maxillar yuxtanasal and/or the dental alveolar area. Secondary, it can be complicated by sequestrations, spontaneous expulsion of dental pieces and/or fistula, as well as orbital and intracranial complications. The diagnosis is based on clinical findings and is confirmed by computed tomography findings. The treatment is clinical and surgical. Here we report a five year old child, with rhinosinusitis complicated by osteomyelitis of maxillary bone, mediated by a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection. :La rinosinusitis es una patología muy frecuente en la infancia. Entre sus complicaciones, se encuentra la osteomielitis, rara complicación que, cuando se presenta, ocurre, principalmente, en lactantes y niños pequeños. El agente etiológico más frecuente es el Staphylococcus aureus. Clínicamente, se manifiesta con fiebre alta, edema de párpado inferior, rinorrea unilateral y edema palatino ipsilateral; luego se agrega un absceso sobre el área maxilar yuxtanasal y/o sobre los alvéolos dentarios. Secundariamente, pueden desarrollarse secuestros, expulsiones espontáneas de piezas dentarias y trayectos fistulosos, así como complicaciones orbitarias y endocraneales. El diagnóstico es, sobre todo, clínico; se confirma con tomografia computada. El tratamiento es médico quirúrgico. Se presenta un niño de 5 años de edad con rinosinusitis complicada con osteomielitis del hueso maxilar, cuyo germen responsable fue el Staphylococcus aureus meticilino resistente.
