An acute transient sialadenitis of the major salivary glands in the early postoperative period is called 'anesthesia mumps'. It has been reported in different surgical procedures especially in neurosurgical procedures. Anesthesia mumps develops very fast after the extubation period but it usually regresses with no sequelae within a few hours. However, sometimes serious complication can occur such as respiratory distress. In this report, we present a 3-year-old girl with an anesthesia mumps and facial palsy occurring after successful auditory brainstem implantation and we discuss the cause and the management of this rare complication in this report.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the understudied issue of vaccine-associated erythema multiforme (EM) and its link to specific vaccines, aiming to improve global vaccine safety evaluations.
  • By analyzing over 131 million reports from the WHO database (1967-2023), the research identified 6,355 cases of vaccine-associated EM, with notable spikes in incidence around 2010 and 2020, especially linked to measles, mumps, rubella, and hepatitis vaccines.
  • Findings indicate a higher occurrence of vaccine-associated EM in younger males, with a very low fatality rate (0.04%), stressing the importance of monitoring and refining vaccination strategies to reduce adverse effects.

Article Synopsis
  • - Transient acute sialadenitis, or "anesthesia mumps," is a rare complication following surgery, particularly extensive procedures, and often resolves on its own but can potentially cause airway obstruction in rare cases.
  • - Common causes of this condition include dehydration, anesthesia components, duct obstruction from positioning, and external pressure.
  • - A case presentation highlights a 76-year-old male who developed bilateral parotitis after undergoing an elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Although previous studies have focused on hepatobiliary and gastrointestinal adverse drug reactions (ADRs) associated with COVID-19 vaccines, literature on such ADRs with other vaccines is limited, particularly on a global scale. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the global burden of vaccine-associated hepatobiliary and gastrointestinal ADRs and identify the vaccines implicated in these occurrences. This study utilized data from the World Health Organization (WHO) international pharmacovigilance database to extract reports of vaccine-associated hepatobiliary and gastrointestinal ADRs from 1967 to 2023 (total reports = 131 255 418).

Introduction: Retropharyngeal abscess is a fatal infection that is uncommon, yet serious, especially in young children below 5 years. Oropharyngeal infections, in particular, can cause it as a complication of upper respiratory infections. They can also lead to respiratory depression and acute upper airway blockage and other complications.

Objective: The scarcity of studies on vaccine-induced thrombosis and thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS) limits the comprehensive understanding of vaccine safety on a global scale. Therefore, the objective of this study is to assess the global burden of vaccine-induced TTS, identify the vaccines most associated with it, and suggest clinical implications regarding vaccination.

Methods: This study employed the World Health Organization international pharmacovigilance database, extracting records of vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia from 1969 to 2023 (total reports, n > 130 million).
