It is an important complication and should be treated aggressively. Such treatment would include the excision of the etiological factor, drainage and adjuvant antibiotic therapy. The present case concerns a 23\u00a0year old woman who presented at the General Hospital of Nova Igua\u00e7u with complaints of pain in the right side of the face and was diagnosed with acute sinusitis. Antibiotics and analgesics were prescribed to treat the disease. However, after 10\u00a0days, she returned to the emergency room, presenting with proptosis of the right eyeball, subconjunctival haemorrhage, ophthalmoplegia and intense pain in the right orbit, in addition to headaches. After computed tomography was performed, she was diagnosed with a brain abscess in the frontal lobe with the involvement of the maxillary right first molar, the maxillary sinus, the ethmoid sinus and the orbital cavity. With culturing of the secretion, the growth of <jats:italic>Pseudomonas aeruginosa<\/jats:italic> colonies was evident. Treatment consisted of a craniotomy to drain the brain abscess, a Caldwell\u2013Luc procedure to drain the right maxillary sinus, dental extraction and aggressive antibiotic therapy. After 6\u00a0weeks, the patient was discharged with no neurological sequelae.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/adj.12539","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,16]],"date-time":"2017-06-16T13:24:36Z","timestamp":1497619476000},"page":"523-527","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["An unusual case of dental infection by <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa<\/i> causing a brain abscess: case report"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"62","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2509-8633","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"RS","family":"Pereira","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department in General Hospital of Nova Igua\u00e7u Rio de Janeiro Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1687-1340","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"JP","family":"Bonardi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Estatual Paulista \u2013 UNESP Ara\u00e7atuba S\u00e3o Paulo Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"ACD","family":"Ferreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Neurosurgery Department in General Hospital of Nova Igua\u00e7u Rio de Janeiro Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"GL","family":"Latini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department in General Hospital of Nova Igua\u00e7u Rio de Janeiro Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.coms.2011.08.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.oooo.2013.08.011"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tripleo.2008.09.035"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tripleo.2006.02.010"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jcms.2006.10.004"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3340\/jkns.2016.59.6.564"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0030-4220(88)90276-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","first-page":"130","article-title":"Prevalence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection among patients with maxillary sinusitis","volume":"1","author":"Umenai TK","year":"1980","journal-title":"Tohoku J Exp Med"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-198501000-00010"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1590\/S1808-86942012000400008"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1399-302X.2009.00534.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2012.10.023"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/SCS.0b013e318231e585"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/515541"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tripleo.2006.07.002"}],"container-title":["Australian Dental Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fadj.12539","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/adj.12539","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,5]],"date-time":"2023-10-05T12:37:40Z","timestamp":1696509460000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/adj.12539"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,24]]},"references-count":15,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,12]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/adj.12539"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/adj.12539","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0045-0421","1834-7819"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0045-0421","type":"print"},{"value":"1834-7819","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,24]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2017-04-05","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2017-07-24","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
