Description
Summary:This article examines two cases of odontogenic orbital cellulitis, highlighting the complexities and interdisciplinary approaches required for effective management. We present two cases and describe the clinical challenges and treatment strategies employed. We report the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of patients who developed orbital cellulitis as a complication of an odontogenic infection. Our objective is to report and discuss the clinical aspects and management of this pathology compared to those observed in the literature. This study underscores the necessity for collaboration among various specialties, including ophthalmology, otolaryngology, oral surgery, radiology, and infectious disease, to address the multifaceted challenges posed by this condition. Effective management of orbital abscesses of odontogenic origin requires a timely and multidisciplinary approach for successful outcomes. This article emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and coordinated care to prevent serious complications, such as vision loss or intracranial infections.
