          Abstract

          RESUMEN Introducción y objetivo: El objetivo de este estudio es proporcionar una revisión actualizada del tratamiento médico y quirúrgico en pacientes con abscesos subperiósticos secundarios a la osteomielitis del hueso frontal. Método: Se realizó una búsqueda en la base de datos PubMed, BVS (biblioteca virtual en salud España) y Scopus de las distintas opciones terapéuticas del tumor de Pott. La revisión se realizó siguiendo los criterios PRISMA Resultados: Se seleccionaron 20 artículos en la búsqueda bibliográfica. Un total de 30 pacientes (24 varones, con media de edad de 27 años) fueron revisados. En un 90% la causa fue una rinosinusitis crónica, seguida por traumatismos locales. En la mayoría de los casos se realizó un drenaje endoscópico tipo Draf 2 (60%), 5 pacientes fueron sometidos a un Draf 3, tres a un Draf 1 y sólo uno a un Draf 2B. Un paciente fue tratado con sinuplastia con balón y otro con craneotomía externa aislada. Todos los pacientes tenían antibióticos orales o intravenosos de duración variable; aunque predomina el esquema terapéutico de vancomicina y ceftriaxona endovenosa durante 6 semanas. No hubo más complicaciones después de la intervención endoscópica sinusal. La presencia de fístulas, cicatrizaron sin necesidad de desbridamiento quirúrgico o cierre. Discusión: El tumor inflamatorio de Pott es una patología muy infrecuente. Debido a la rareza de la patología, muchos casos han sido infradiagnosticados desembocando en complicaciones intracraneales. El abordaje externo ha sido el tratamiento de elección durante años; actualmente se aboga por un abordaje endonasal guiada en ocasiones por neuronavegador sumado a la antibioticoterapia correspondiente durante un largo periodo de tiempo. Conclusiones: La mayoría de los casos de tumor inflamatorio de Pott pueden manejarse endoscópicamente. La disponibilidad de instrumentos en ángulo motorizados, videos de alta definición y sistemas de guía de imágenes han proporcionado a los otorrinolaringólogos una alternativa creíble a las técnicas tradicionales. Además, la biodisponibilidad mejorada de los antibióticos puede obviar la necesidad de una craneotomía y drenajes externos.

          ABSTRACT Introduction and objective: The aim of this study was to provide an updated review of medical and surgical treatment in patients with subperiosteal abscesses, secondary to osteomyelitis of the frontal bone. Method: The search was made in PubMed, BVS (virtual health library Spain) and Scopus of the different therapeutic options about Pott's puffy tumor. The review was carried out following the PRISMA criteria. Results: Twenty articles were selected in the bibliographic review. 30 patients (24 males, with a mean age of 27 years) were reviewed.The main cause was chronic rhinosinusitis (90%), followed by local trauma. In most cases Draf 2 endoscopic drainage was performed (60%), 5 patients had Draf 3 procedure , three Draf 1 procedure and only one, Draf 2B procedure. One patient was treated by balloon sinuplasty and another by isolated external craniotomy. All patients had either oral or intravenous antibiotics of varying duration. although the therapeutic scheme of vancomycin + ceftriaxoneIV predominates for 6 weeks. There were no further complications following endoscopic surgery. Fistulas healed without requiring surgical debridement or closure. Discussion: Pott's puffy tumor is a very rare pathology. Due to the rarity of the pathology, many cases have been underdiagnosed leading to intracranial complications. The external approach has been the treatment for years; it is currently advocated an endonasal approach sometimes guided by neuronavigator; in addition to the corresponding antibiotic therapy for long time. Conclusions: Some Pott's puffy tumor cases can be managed endoscopically. The availability of powered angled instruments, high-definition video, and image guidance systems have provided the otolaryngologists with a credible alternative to traditional techniques. Furthermore, improved bioavailability of antibiotics may obviate the need for craniotomy and external drains.

            Evaluation of adult Pott's puffy tumor: our five cases and 27 literature cases.

            Pott's puffy tumor (PPT) is defined as one or more subperiosteal abscesses of the frontal bone based on osteomyelitis. PPT is observed predominantly in the adolescent age group and rarely in adults. Some parameters affecting prognosis and an appropriate surgical approach for antecedent frontal sinusitis have not been elucidated due to the rarity of patients with adult PPT.

              Pott's Puffy Tumor in an Adult: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

              Pott's puffy tumor is a subperiosteal abscess of the frontal bone with osteomyelitis which has become rare because of the widespread use of antibiotics. Here, we report a case of Pott's puffy tumor in a 46-year-old man who visited the department of dermatology with painful swelling of the forehead. Despite open drainage and oral antibiotic therapy, the symptoms recurred twice in the following month. Computed tomography revealed a fistula of frontal bone. The eventual diagnosis was Pott's puffy tumor. The patient underwent endoscopic surgery at the department of otorhinolaryngology and achieved a complete recovery.
