Approach To Pott’s Puffy Tumor in a 5-Year-Old Girl: Case Report

A 5-year-old girl was admitted to our hospital with swelling in the forehead, redness, and swelling in the right eye. We wanted to describe the successful treatment protocol with medical treatment, endoscopic sinus surgery, and external approach to the frontal region. Cite this article as: Kozan G, Dedeoğlu S.
