In the etiology of the orbital phlegmona the initial focus originates most frequently in the sinuses. In our case we had the opportunity to observe an orbital phlegmona caused by a purulent inflammation of the sinuses by streptococcus pyogenes (hemolyticus). The course of the process was explosive, with toxic symptoms. After a successful operation and conservative treatment, recovery was achieved.
