Subperiosteal Orbital Abscess Complicating Infantile Osteopetrosis: MRI Findings
Ozgur Kilickesmez1, Mutlu Cihangiroglu1, Bengi Gurses1, Yuksel Isik1, Duygu Kara1, Nevzat Gurmen1Yeditepe University School of Medicine, Department of RadiologyOsteopetrosis (Albers-Schonberg disease) is a rare sclerosing bone disorder in which bone marrow is obliterated. Owing to pancytopenia, infections can occur. In this study an infantile osteopetrosis complicated with subperiosteal orbital abscess is presented and magnetic resonance imaging findings described which to our knowledge no such togetherness has been mentioned before.

Pansitopeniye bağlı enfeksiyonlar gelisebilir. Bu olgu sunumunda, daha önce birlikteliği tanımlanmamıs olan infantil osteopetrozisli olguda gelisen subperiostal orbital absenin MRG bulgularını tanımlamayı amaçladık.
