Type Of Injury

Transorbital slow-penetrating injury is an uncommon type of head injury that is seen more often in the pediatric age group. This type of injury can be occult, which is often associated with serious complications. We report on a 4-year-old female who presented with orbital swelling after an unwitnessed right orbital injury following a fall on her face at her school. Three days after injury, the presence of a foreign body was discovered on imaging study when she presented with orbital swelling and purulent discharges. She recovered well after surgical and medical management. This paper sheds light on the importance of high suspicion for the presence and early surgical management of a penetrating foreign body.

Initial Injury

ABSTRACT Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea is common in traumatic penetrating nasal injuries. In the pediatric age group, we often encounter self-inflicted foreign body injuries of blunt type, which rarely leads to any complications. We came across a case of CSF rhinorrhea due to self-inflicted penetrating nasal injury, after 7 years of initial injury. In this case, the sharp end of a screw nail had injured the fovea ethmoidalis and caused a meningoencephalocele on removal, which had been asymptomatic until 4 years ago, when the patient came with CSF rhinorrhea. Miraculously, there were no complications in the period before presentation and after surgical correction. How to cite this article Rajasekar MK, Sankar MR.

Cases of salbutamol toxicity by oral ingestion and inhalation are rarely reported in the pediatric age group and have never been reported in neonates. We report a case of salbutamol toxicity by unintentional oral ingestion of inhalation respules in a newborn, which led to tachycardia and QT prolongation requiring medical management. The importance of breastfeeding, identifying similar looking medications, and keeping them separately at home are discussed.
