Abstract

Pott’s Puffy tumor PPT is a rare entity characterized by subperiosteal abscess associated with osteomyelitis of the frontal bone. It is usually managed by surgical curettage of the osteomyelitic bone and long-term antibiotic therapy. Balloon catheter dilatation is a new technique which was recently introduced for the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis. In this article, we present three PPT cases two of them were secondary to endoscopic sinus surgery who were successfully treated with balloon catheter dilatation and long-term antibiotherapy.
