Abstract

Cutaneous anthrax is a zoonotic bacterial infection that mostly involves the head, neck, and upper extremities. Periorbital involvement of cutaneous anthrax is a rare presentation that can lead to severe irreversible complications. Herein, we describe a 2.5-year-old girl with periorbital anthrax cellulitis. She presented with a severe swelling on the right side of her face and an ulceronecrotic lesion above the right eyebrow. After receiving an appropriate antibiotic regimen, her condition improved and she was discharged without any intraocular complications. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
