Introduction: The differential diagnosis of orbital complications of rhinosinusitis with diseases of the lacrimal sac in childhood remains unresolved both due to the similarity of the symptoms of the diseases and due to certain diagnostic difficulties requiring computed tomography.

Objective: To develop an algorithm for routing a patient to the emergency department of a multidisciplinary emergency hospital based on clinical and diagnostic distinctive features of sinusitis with orbital complications and diseases of the lacrimal sac with reactive edema of the eyelids.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective cohort analysis of children's medical histories, who were treated in the otorhinolaryngological and ophthalmological departments of the Morozovskaya Children's City Clinical Hospital during 2022 was performed for orbital complications of rhinosinusitis or dacryocystitis with reactive edema of the eyelids.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the prenatal and postnatal features, along with genetic traits, of Lymphedema-Distichiasis syndrome (LDS) in two Chinese families with FOXC2 gene mutations.
  • - Genetic analysis revealed pathogenic variants in the FOXC2 gene for both families, with literature review yielding a total of 117 identified LDS patients, including prenatal signs in 13 cases and postnatal manifestations in 110.
  • - Key prenatal symptoms of LDS include increased nuchal translucency and fetal edema, while postnatal symptoms commonly feature distichiasis and lymphedema, with only a few cases exhibiting signs before and after birth.
