Acute suppurative thyroiditis (AST), a rare yet potentially life-threatening infection, comprises less than 1 % of neck pathologies and requires prompt treatment. Symptoms range from neck pain and fever to dysphagia and possible abscess formation. Broad-spectrum antibiotics are the primary treatment; however, surgical drainage may be necessary for abscesses to prevent systemic infection.

Dopamine receptor antagonists like metoclopramide are frequently used in a variety of clinical contexts to treat gastrointestinal disorders and control nausea and vomiting. However, it is associated with a high incidence of extrapyramidal side effects (EPS) in children, including dystonic movements and torticollis. This is the instance of a 9-year-old girl who developed abnormal movements of the neck and tongue, along with torticollis, within 48 hours of receiving intravenous metoclopramide for gastroenteritis.

Purpose: This case report describes a child with Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) associated with genetically confirmed Type II Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RTS). The purpose is to better understand the ocular manifestations of RTS and further explore the possibility that the neurodevelopmental genetic abnormality in RTS may sporadically impact ocular motor nerves.
Observations: A 2-year-old male with a history of Type II RTS associated with a de novo variant of presented for a comprehensive eye examination, which revealed a left esotropia of 20 prism diopters (PD) in primary gaze with a significant left face turn, mild globe retraction on adduction in the left eye, and abduction limitation consistent with Type 1 DRS in the left eye.
Torticollis as an early manifestation of basilar invagination in a paediatric patient.

McMaster Children's Hospital/ Hamilton Health Sciences, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
This case report describes the clinical journey of a male patient in early childhood with developmental delay, failure to thrive, worsening right-sided head tilt torticollis and regression of motor skills with spasticity of the lower limbs. The case was complex due to the early onset and gradually worsening symptoms, including a decline in established motor milestones. Genetic testing to investigate the delayed neurodevelopment revealed a variant that did not fully explain the patient's phenotype.
