We treated two cases of intracranial complications caused by frontal sinus infection. Having lived in cities with ready access to medical care, these two young patients still suffered from such serious life-threatening complications. Study of these two cases indicates as follows.1) Inspite of the wide use of an ever-increasing number of antibiotics, the intracranial complications caused by sinus infections continue to present.2) Close cooperation with neurological parts is inevitably necessary to recognize and treat these intracranial complications.3) Computed tomography is very effective to detect any persistent intracranial lesion.4) Surgical drainage of the frontal sinus is most important procedure to treat these conditions.
