| Abstract: | Pott's Puffy tumor is a rare disease entity arising from osteomyelitis of the frontal bone associated with subperiosteal abscess that develops on the forehead resulting from frontal sinusitis. In this case, we present a 12-year-old girl who presented with Pott's Puffy tumor with epidural abscess extension which was detected on CT scan. The role of radiological imaging is discussed. |
