RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: and importance: Congenital upper eyelid eversion (CUEE) is a rare congenital condition characterized by everted upper eyelids with prominent chemosis. The authors present the first case of concurrent upper eyelids eversion, umbilical hernia, and clubfeet. CASE PRESENTATION: A four-hour-old newborn male presented with bilateral red upper eyelids swelling. Ophthalmic examination revealed bilateral upper eyelids eversion and severe bilateral chemosis. The further pediatric evaluation showed a painless reducible umbilical hernia and clubfeet. Treatment of the eyelids eversion was conservative, combining topical steroids, antibiotics and lubricants. Chemosis reduced progressively. We obtained a complete resolution on day 21. We referred the neonate to the pediatric surgery, and orthopedic department for umbilical hernia and clubfeet management. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Most infants with CUEE may show excellent anatomic and functional results with conservative treatment if managed timely and promptly. CONCLUSION: The innocuous appearance of CUEE must not prevent clinicians from investigating possible systemic associations and initiating appropriate treatment.
