Twaij S et al. – Posttraumatic cranio–orbital cerebrospinal fluid fistula is rare, occurring when there is a communication between orbit and subarachnoid space. This communication can be caused by orbital tumors with intracranial extension or can be a result of orbital surgery. Low suspicion for traumatic orbital CSF fistula can lead to delay in diagnosis, which increases the risk of meningitis. The authors report a cranio–orbital CSF cystocele and fistula that mimicked orbital cellulitis in a 3–year–old boy following an orbitocranial penetrating injury.
