Foreign body in frontal sinus: case report
Abstract Introduction: The use of button batteries are commonly used today, used in everyday objects such as watches, hearing aids and toys. Its chemicals lead to serious injury. Clinical case: This article describes the case of a 10-year-old boy who threw a battery stack into the fire with explosion and trauma from fragments to the face and paranasal breasts, which evolved into osteomyelitis. The boy underwent several abscess drains that eventually led to the detection of traumatic frontal sinusitis, which was operated on and evolved well. Conclusions: Frontal sinusitis is not common in children and is therefore assumed that there is some foreign body present every time there is a history of trauma.
