RESUMO
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a rare, genetically variable, heterogenous group of (currently recognized) thirteen connective tissue disorders characterized by skin hyperextensibility, tissue fragility, and generalized joint hypermobility. In addition to these commonly recognized phenotypes, recent studies have notably highlighted variable ophthalmic features in EDS. In this review, we comprehensively gather and discuss the ocular manifestations of EDS and its thirteen subtypes in the clinical setting.
RESUMO
Orbital inflammatory disease is a rarely reported complication of COVID-19 infection. We report a unique case of bilateral orbital myositis in a 12-year-old boy who tested positive for COVID-19 without typical systemic symptoms. Workup for other infectious and inflammatory etiologies was negative. After failing both oral and intravenous antibiotics, the patient was started on high-dose systemic steroids, with significant clinical improvement after 24 hours, thus confirming the inflammatory etiology of his presentation.
