The spread of the infection from the paranasal sinuses affects, most often, the orbit, patients presenting diplopia, preseptal cellulitis, orbital cellulitis, or even blindness alongside exteriorization of puss from the middle meatus and nasal obstruction.Materials and methodsWe carried out a retrospective review of 32 patients that were diagnosed in our clinic with complicated rhinosinusitis from 2015 to 2022. All the patients received at least one intravenous antibiotic, and some also received antifungal drugs. All patients underwent surgery, either endoscopically or combined approach. Nasal washout or nasal swabs during surgery were sent for laboratory examination in all patients, and we studied the microbial etiology in these extensive infections. A database with all the information regarding demographic and medical data was estab...
