Abstract
Sinusitis is an important community health problem for its increasing prevelance and incidence. The exact incidence of the complications of the disease is not known because sinusitis is generally treated by pediatricians and general practitioners, whereas complications are mostly treated by otorhinolaryngologists 1 . In this study we present a case hospitalised for sinusitis who had no complaints and no examination findings on the 3 rd day of medical treatment, but experienced a sudden right orbital pain with slight hypotropia of the right eye and painful eye movements. The computerized tomography obtained to exclude intracranial complications, revealed the retrograde airflow to orbita through lacrimal canal without presence of a bone defect. Aim of this study is to remind retrograde airflow to lacrimal canal in a patient with sinusitis, with acute severe headache, hypotropia, and pitosis, mimicking preseptal cellulitis

Sinuzit Tanılı Olguda Preseptal Selüliti Andıran Klinik Prezantasyon: Nazolakrimal Kanala Retrograd Hava Girişi
Abstract
Sinüzit insidans ve prevelansı giderek artan halksağlığı problemlerindendir. Çok sık rastlanan bu hastalığın komplikasyonlarının gerçek insidansı bilinmemektedir çünkü komplike olmamış sinüzit diğer branş hekimleri ve pratisyen hekimler tarafından tedavi edilirken, komplikasyonlar genel olarak kulak burun boğaz hekimleri tarafından tedavi edilmektedirler 1 . Çalışmamızda sinuzit tanısı ile yatırılan, ve tedavisinin 3. gününde yakınma ve muayene bulgularında belirgin düzelme sağlanmışken sağ orbitaya uyan bölgede ani şiddetli baş ağrısı, sağ gözde hafif aşağı deplasman ve ağrılı göz hareketleri ortaya çıkan bir olguyu sunmaktayız Şekil 1 . Hastada intrakranial komplikasyonları ekarte etmek amacı ile çekilen bilgisayarlı tomografide BT lakrimal kanaldan orbitaya kemik defekti olmakasızın ortaya çıkan retrograd hava geçişi izlenmiştir Şekil 2 ve 3 . Bu çalışmada , sinüzit tanılı olguda ani olarak ortaya çıkan gözkapağı şişliği, ağrılı göz hareketleri, ve taraf gösteren şiddetli ağrıda, preseptal selülit tablosu ile karışabilecek larimal kanala retrograd hava geçişini hatırlatmak amaçlanmıştır
