Acute *Staph. aureus* sinusitis is an acute bacterial infection of the paranasal sinus mucosa caused specifically by *Staphylococcus aureus*

Acute *Staph. aureus* sinusitis is an acute bacterial infection of the paranasal sinus mucosa caused specifically by *Staphylococcus aureus* It primarily affects the respiratory system in pediatric and adult populations, often arising following ostiomeatal obstruction, viral upper respiratory illness, or nosocomial predisposing factors Clinically, it is characterized by symptoms lasting under four weeks, including purulent rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, facial pain or pressure, and fever, with an...
