Overview
Orbital cellulitis first appears in the literature as early as 1882. In 1937, Dr. Davis reported a review of 54 successfully treated patients, and suggested a management guideline for orbital cellulitis.
Historical Perspective
- In 1892, Dr. E.E. Holt first described orbital cellulitis as a case study in the literature. He hypothesized that orbital cellulitis was a result of extension of an adjacent infection. In his work, Dr. Holt references a similar case presentation in print publication by Dr. Nettleship, as early as 1882.[1]
- In 1935, Dr. Layton outlines a surgical approach to treatment by simple incision, drainage and irrigation of the retro-orbital space.[2]
- In 1937, this procedure was confirmed in a review of 54 successfully treated cases of orbital cellulitis.[3]
