Multiple Recurrences

In a recent article by Kirkland et al.1 describing the nature of solitary thyroid nodules in 30 children, one child with thyroid abscess was reported. The authors reviewed 35 cases of abscesses in childhood, four of which were reported after 1950. We recently studied a child with thyroid abscess in whom the clinical course was characterized by multiple recurrences. The patient was a 5 4/12 year-old-girl who developed progressive swelling in the anterior portion of the neck two weeks after the onset of intermittent low grade fever, rhinorrhea, and cough.

Inferior Rectus Muscle

Monocular elevation deficiency poses a challenge to strabismus surgeons on account of its varied clinical presentations as well as management which often needs a tailored approach. We report on a young child who presented to us at 6 months of age with a clinical course marked by primary involvement of the inferior rectus muscle in one eye causing restricted elevation in all gazes and complete relief of hypotropia following disinsertion of the affected muscle but followed by recurrence and additional procedures (antimitotic application and superior rectus plication) for the same. She followed a recalcitrant clinical course which was marked by multiple recurrences requiring a tailored approach and finally managed successfully with a follow-up of 3 years, by now. This case demonstrates the almost intractable nature of restrictive pathology involving a single muscle warranting multiple surgeries and a close follow-up with good surgical outcome.

Multiple Recurrences

Lymphangioma of the tongue is a rare, benign malformation of the lymphatic channels. The clinical course is characterized by multiple recurrences after local excision. A review of the literature revealed no prior association of a head and neck lymphangioma with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). We present the case of a 64-year-old woman with a history of a tongue base lymphangioma who developed a base of tongue SCC. Further confounding the pathophysiologic scenario was a history of nasopharyngeal irradiation for adenoid hypertrophy.
