“…Proptosis of 5 mm and large subperiosteal lesion were indications for immediate surgery. All 11 previous cases of subperiosteal hematoma secondary to sinusitis were treated surgically (Wheeler 1937;Harris et al 1978;Leopold et al 1980;Ichino et al 1985;Choi et al 1988;Zalzal 1991;Aoki et al 1997;Woo and Kim 1997;Park et al 2010). The pathogenesis of subperiosteal hematoma is thought to be rupture of vessels as a result of phlebitis in the sinus mucosa.…”

“…Orbital subperiosteal hematoma is rare and occurs most often after trauma (Dobben et al 1998). Subperiosteal hematoma secondary to sinusitis is extremely rare with only 11 reported cases (Wheeler 1937;Harris et al 1978;Leopold et al 1980;Ichino et al 1985;Choi et al 1988;Zalzal 1991;Aoki et al 1997;Woo and Kim 1997;Park et al 2010). Only one of these 11 cases was aged under 18 years (Zalzal 1991).…”

Acute rhinosinusitis is frequently associated with secondary orbital infection, most commonly subperiosteal abscess. Although orbital subperiosteal abscess is a deadly disease that might lead to blind and cavernous sinus thrombosis, recent review of literature showed that immediate surgical intervention might not always be necessary for subperiosteal abscess. Orbital inflammation secondary to sinusitis is common in children, whereas orbital subperiosteal hematoma secondary to sinusitis is extremely rare, with only 11 reported cases, including one case in children. All the cases were treated with surgical intervention. Here we present a 12-year-old girl with rhinosinusitis and proptosis. Emergent endoscopic sinus surgery with partial removal of the lamina papyracea revealed dark brown fluid in the subperiosteal space. The patient was symptom-free 2 weeks after surgery. The present case was treated exclusively via an endonasal approach, whereas all 11 previous cases of subperiosteal hematoma were treated with external incision. The endonasal approach is favorable, especially for young female patients. Our review of literature shows that sudden onset, afebrile, and few signs of inflammation on blood test in patients with subperiosteal lesion may indicate subperiosteal hematoma. Surgery rather than antibiotic administration should be considered for the treatment of suspected subperiosteal hematoma. Treatment through only the endonasal approach is possible even if the hematoma is located in the roof of the orbit.

“…Subperiosteal hematoma of the orbit is a rare but well-recognized entity and is usually caused by trauma [1]. Subperiosteal hematoma and frontal extradural abscess manifesting as sudden onset of orbital pain, and exophthalmos is extremely rare and only few case reports are there in world literature [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. We describe a case of subperiosteal hematoma in a child and review the relevant literature.…”

We report a case of 14-year-old female who was admitted with a rare retroorbital subperiosteal hematoma manifested as sudden orbital pain, progressive proptosis and diminution of vision. Cranial computed tomography showed a biconvex high density mass in the superolateral part of the right orbit, which was recognized to be a subperiosteal hematoma intraoperatively. Infection extending into the orbit was important in causing the hemorrhage.
