Orbital compartment syndrome in orbital mucormycosis: spot the threat through radiologist's eye.

Purpose: To illustrate the imaging findings of orbital compartment syndrome (OCS) in patients with orbital mucormycosis and to identify the red flag signs on imaging for prompt diagnosis and timely intervention.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of CT and MRI scans from patients diagnosed with sino-nasal mucormycosis within three months of a confirmed COVID-19 infection. Microbiologically proven cases of mucormycosis were included.

Idiopathic Pulmonary Hemosiderosis: An Unexplored Cause of Treatment Refractory Pediatric Iron Deficiency Anemia.

Though the typical triad of presentation is hemoptysis, IDA, and lung opacities on thoracic radiographs, often the sole manifestation of IPH may be severe IDA in children.
