Article Abstract:
Infections of the paranasal sinuses can be complicated by septic thrombosis of the cavernous venous sinuses. After standard antibiotic treatment, fewer than 50% of the patients recover completely, and the mortality rate is approximately 30%. We chose to treat this potentially catastrophic complication with functional endonasal sinus surgery in addition to standard antibiotic therapy.

Dr. Rande Lazar it is awesome that you know a lot about several disorders that include both pediatric and adult. Your abstract has to do with Thrombosis and since you seem to be a physician concerned to increase your knowledge I think you may be attending the “ISTH 2009 XXII Congress” here is a link with information about it and after attending you may share you experience:
