To report a case of pediatric infected maxillary mucocele and review relevant literature. A 3 years and 9 months old male patient was involved. He had nasal congestion and runny nose for 3 months. He usually has pus and occasional bloody nose. Physical examination: A red lump in the right nasal cavity with complete obstruction of the nasal passage. CT and MRI showed a right sinus mass. The patients WBC was 4.76×10⁸, and CRP<0.5 mg/L. Drainage and marsupialization were performed by endoscopy. No purulent discharge was observed during follow-up, and the recovery was good. Enhanced CT or MRI shows typical circular enhancement shadows in infected maxillary mucocele. This indicates that endoscopic sinus surgery has a definite therapeutic effect. Drainage and marsupialization of maxillary mucocele are sufficient.

Background: The few reported patients with pathogenic IRF8 variants have manifested 2 distinct phenotypes: (1) an autosomal recessive severe immunodeficiency with significant neutrophilia and absence of or significant decrease in monocytes and dendritic cells and (2) a dominant-negative form with only a decrease in conventional type 2 dendritic cells (cDC2s) and susceptibility to mycobacterial disease.
Objectives: Genetic testing of a child with persistent EBV viremia identified a novel IRF8 variant: c.1279dupT (p.
Pertussis resurged over the last decade in most countries that replaced the traditional whole-cell pertussis vaccines (wP) by the less reactogenic acellular pertussis vaccines (aP). The aP vaccines induce a Th2-polarized immune response and by a yet unknown mechanism hamper the clearance of from infected nasopharyngeal mucosa. The aP-induced pertussis toxin-neutralizing antibodies effectively prevent the life-threatening pertussis pneumonia in infants, but aP-elicited immunity fails to prevent infection of nasopharyngeal mucosa and transmission of .

Candidaemia in children is associated with high mortality. The epidemiology of Candida bloodstream infection is changing with rising rates of fluconazole resistance worldwide and the emergence of novel multidrug-resistant species such as Candida auris, which is associated with outbreaks. Guidelines on the management of candidaemia emphasise identification of species and determination of antifungal susceptibility to guide appropriate treatment, performing relevant investigations to rule out deep-seated infection, and removal of central venous catheters.

Approximately half of the patients with OAIs in clinical practice fail to obtain microbiological results even after undergoing aspiration or surgery, which presents a significant challenge in clinical practice. The inability to identify pathogens can lead to incorrect antibiotic usage or under-treatment, increasing the risk of adverse outcomes.
