Adams-Oliver syndrome: About a case.

We report the case of a newborn with aplasia cutis congenita characterized by the absence of skin in the left parietal region, superficial dilatation of the scalp veins, facial dysmorphia, limb anomalies, and severe intrauterine growth retardation. Maternal milk enabled the baby to gain weight, and dermatological treatment was performed for scarring of the vertex. Psychomotor development and stature were spectacular. This case illustrates the clinical variability of this condition and the need for multidisciplinary management.

Acute ethmoiditis complicated by intraorbital abscess, orbital cellulitis, and cerebral empyema in a 14-year-old girl.

We report the case of a 14-year-old girl with pain and protrusion of the left eye and treated with diclofenac. Clinical and paraclinical examinations revealed a cerebral empyema and a left retro-orbital abscess complicating an acute ethmoiditis. Parenteral antibiotic remains essential in the management of acute ethmoiditis to prevent complications.
