ABSTRACT

Etofenamate is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Clinical findings caused by etofenamate
are uncommon. Allergic contact dermatitis is the most common cutaneous reaction reported. But
petechial eruption due to etofenamate had not been reported yet. This report concerns an 11-year old
male with petechial eruption after application of topical etofenamate.
Physicians need to be aware that patients can develop an asymptomatic purpuric eruption when
etofenamate is ordered.

We report a case of significant unilateral left proptosis after a fall in a 10-year old child. Magnetic
resonance imaging showed an extraconal hyperintense orbital mass extending into the maxillary sinus
which was opacified. After drainage the proptosis resolved. The cause of the acute proptosis was
haemorrhage within an orbital lymphangioma.

Rhinolith is an uncommon nasal mass and a rare entity encountered in clinical practice. The typical
symptoms of rhinolith are unilateral nasal obstruction, foul smelling purulent nasal discharge and
epistaxis, crusting, swelling of nose or face, anosmia, epiphora and headache. In this report, we present
a case of recurrent rhinolith manifesting as an incidental finding on dental radiographs. A 26-year old
male patient with a history of long standing halitosis had an operation for rhinolith seven years

ABSTRACT

We describe two cases of lateral medullary syndrome at the University Hospital of the West Indies,
Mona, Jamaica. This diagnosis is often missed and not well understood, so we will discuss the
underlying pathophysiology.
