Abstract
We experienced one case of an unusual acute osteomyelitis of orbital margin, of which frontal, zygomatic and maxillary bone was involved in 10-month old infant. His clinical symptomes were similar to the acute osteomyelitis of superior maxilla but the primary site seemed to be in the frontal bone by history. We treated him with massive antibiotics and surgery (anterior approach). The causative organism was staphylococcus sureus, being very sensitive to penicillin. Also we reviewed the literatures of the orbital osteomyelitis comparing with thia case.
