A localized form of lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) has been described very rarely. A 38-year-old Korean man presented with a single bean-sized, non-tender, erythematous nodule confined to periorbital areas with three recurrences over a 2-year duration. With findings of biopsy, immunohistochemical staining and T-cell receptor gene rearrangement, LyP was diagnosed. We report a case of CD30 (Ki-1)-positive LyP which developed recurrently and was confined to the periorbital areas.

A case report and systematic review of periorbital emphysema following nose blowing or sneezing.

Periorbital emphysema following nose blowing or sneezing is rare. Although it is often self-limiting, air trapping in the orbit can raise the intraocular pressure leading to visual complications. At present, the literature on this topic is confined to case reports.

Article Synopsis
- Rhinosinusitis, although mostly an inflammatory condition of the sinuses, can rarely lead to serious complications like intracranial hemorrhage, often resulting in severe outcomes.
- A systematic review found 21 total cases of intracranial hemorrhage linked to rhinosinusitis—primarily epidural hematomas in the frontal region, with common symptoms including headaches and fever.
- Management of these rare cases typically involves surgical intervention and antibiotics, but the condition can still lead to neurological impairments or fatalities, underscoring the importance of awareness in clinical settings.*
Article Synopsis
- Periorificial dermatitis (POD) is a chronic facial rash affecting areas around the mouth, nose, and eyes, and while there’s no FDA-approved treatment, broad-spectrum antibiotics are used, but they can cause gut issues and resistance.
- A study reviewed the effects of sarecycline, a narrow-spectrum tetracycline, on patients diagnosed with POD, showing that all six patients treated experienced improvement without side effects.
- The study suggests that sarecycline may be a promising alternative treatment for POD compared to traditional antibiotics, and calls for more extensive research to fully evaluate its potential benefits.
