ABSTRACT

Orbital abscess formation in neonates is rare, with only 12 cases reported in the literature. We present a case of orbital cellulitis with orbital abscesses following repair of congenital choanal atresia in a 2-week-old neonate. This is the first reported case of an orbital abscess following a sinus procedure in a neonate.
