Acquired brown syndrome in a child with acute rheumatic fever.

Purpose: To describe a rare case of acquired Brown syndrome (ABS) associated with acute rheumatic fever (ARF).

Case Report: a healthy 9-year-old girl developed polyarthritis, carditis, and elevated inflammatory markers 10 days after suffering from a sore throat. She was diagnosed with ARF and was treated with systemic antibiotics and high-dose non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).

"Black curtain, Brown window" - A case of recurrent intermittent idiopathic Brown syndrome with atypical presenting symptoms.

Brown syndrome is characterized by limited elevation of the eye in an adducted position, most often secondary to mechanical restriction of the superior oblique tendon/trochlea complex. It can be constant or intermittent/recurrent. We report on a 5 years-old boy who complained of seeing dark curtain and had strange head movements.
