A 60 year old gentleman presented with a left sphenocavernous syndrome resulting in impaired ocular motility, proptosis and visual loss in an otherwise clinically quiet eye. The history led to a clinical suspicion of posterior ethmoiditis, which was confirmed on C.T. scanning. Surgical drainage and antibiotic treatment resolved the symptoms, but visual impairment persisted. The differential diagnosis and management of sphenocavernous syndrome is discussed in context with this atypical presention of orbital cellulitis.

Abstract Aim 1) To review current practice in the diagnosis and management of peri-orbital and orbital cellulitis in children at a London University Teaching Hospital. 2) To design and implement a streamlined, multi-specialty care pathway to improve the quality of care. Background Clinical differentiation between peri-orbital cellulitis and orbital cellulitis is often difficult, especially in young children. Early recognition and aggressive, multi-specialty treatment are required in order to prevent any vision and life-threatening sequelae. Method A retrospective case note analysis was performed for all paediatric patients with suspected peri-orbital or orbital cellulitis over a nineteen-month period. Extensive literature review was undertaken to ascertain current best practice in diagnosis and management. A streamlined, multi-specialty care pathway was developed, ratified by specialist departments, and introduced to optimise safety and quality of care. Results The results correlate with trends found in recent literature. 94.3% of patients had a blood culture taken with only 9.1% being positive. There were inadequate eye (37.1%) and endonasal (17.1%) cultures. Wide variation was noted in the criteria for imaging and in the antibiotic regimen used. 25.7% of patients received any nasal treatment. Suboptimal specialist review was identified in both orbital (60%) and peri-orbital (50.0%) cellulitis. Conclusions The new care pathway clearly informs investigation and empiric treatment based on initial risk stratification. The paediatric team is now the main, named care provider responsible for coordinating specialist input.
