The emergency department at Mouwasat Hospital in Jubail Industrial City received a case of a 6-year-old boy who was suffering from severe swelling in his right eye. A team of specialists in ENT and ophthalmology conducted the necessary examinations, including a CT scan, which revealed a pus accumulation in the right eye socket, a complication resulting from a severe sinus infection.

The boy was immediately admitted to the ENT department, where he began receiving medical treatment and underwent the required tests in preparation for surgery. Based on an eye examination that showed increased eye pressure, protrusion, and impaired vision, an urgent procedure was planned to drain the sinus infection and remove the pus accumulation.

The surgery was performed using advanced endoscopic sinus techniques under the supervision of Dr. Abdul Rahman Abdul Aleem, ENT consultant. The procedure was completed successfully without the need for any external incisions.

Post-surgery, the boy continued medical treatment under the close supervision of ENT and ophthalmology consultants for five days. His condition improved fully, and his eye returned to its normal state with 100% accuracy, thankfully, without any complications.

The child was discharged after five days of hospitalization and continues to receive follow-ups in the hospital’s outpatient clinics to ensure his ongoing recovery.

It is worth mentioning that this type of highly precise and critical operation is among the most advanced sinus endoscopy procedures, highlighting Mouwasat Hospital’s commitment to the vision of Mouwasat Medical Services Company in attracting specialized talents and utilizing the latest medical technologies and equipment to keep pace with global medical advancements.
