AB  - A  1-year-old  unimmunized  boy  is  brought  to  the  emergency  department  by  his  mother  because  of  fever,  eyelid  swelling,  and  erythema  for  the  past  24  hours.  On  examination,  the  child  is  febrile  to  39ºC  and  irritable.  The  right  upper  and  lower  eyelids  are  swollen  and  erythematous,  with  no  proptosis  (Figure  17-1).  His  extraocular  movements  are  intact.  A  blood  culture  and  complete  blood  count  are  drawn  and  the  patient  is  admitted  to  the  hospital  for  preseptal  cellulitis  and  treated  with  intravenous  antibiotics.  Twenty-four  hours  later,  the  blood  culture  grows  Haemophilus  influenzae  type  b.  He  was  treated  with  intravenous  antibiotics  and  recovered  completely.
