Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has been useful in describing soft tissue infections, such as cellulitis and abscesses. There has been limited use of ultrasound to describe findings of intracranial infections, such as Pott's puffy tumor, in cases of forehead prominence and signs of infection. In this case series we present POCUS findings in 2 cases of intracranial infections and one case of soft tissue edema without intracranial involvement from a single pediatric tertiary care center.

It is characterized by localized frontal swelling accompanied by a subperiosteal abscess. Clinicians and radiologists do not widely recognize this complication of frontal sinusitis and, hence it is likely to be overlooked in clinical practice.

Objective: This review aims to elucidate the role of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) on the outcomes of pediatric patients with sinogenic intracranial infections.
Methods: MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane library were searched for articles that described the outcomes in pediatric patients who had intracranial complications of acute rhinosinusitis (ARS) and underwent ESS with or without open neurosurgical approaches (ONA) or external sinus approaches (ESA). Primary outcomes of interest include mortality, revision surgery, length of stay and neurological sequelae.
