Introduction: The treatment for pediatric orbital cellulitis/abscess is trending towards intravenous antibiotic management alone in appropriate cases. Without cultures to guide therapy, knowing the local microbiology is of utmost importance in managing these patients.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective case series for patients age 2 months to 17 years, who were hospitalized between January 1, 2013, and December 31, 2019, to evaluate the local microbiology and pattern of antibiotic prescribing in pediatric orbital cellulitis.
