Abstract
To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of orbital compartment syndrome following sinonasal irrigation and malar pressure in the English literature. This case will serve as a reminder to the sinus surgeon of the potential danger of transmitted pressure from the paranasal sinus or malar soft tissue into the orbital compartment.
