It is well known that Horner's syndrome is characterized by ptosis, miosis, and facial anhydrosis. However, the congenital form of Horner's syndrome is relatively uncommon, and it is scarcely known among otolaryngologists. In this report, two cases of congenital Horner's syndrome are described, both encountered recently in the recent author's practice. In the first case, the patient was seeking unnecessary medical treatment for a facial abnormality, not for his eyes. Thermography performed on this patient confirmed his complaint. Having had the first experience made diagnosis in the second case easier. Thus, although rare, this syndrome may be encountered in an otolaryngologist's daily practice and it is important to recognize its symptoms. It is suggested that some suffering from this disease may go undetected due to physicians' lack of familiarity with it.
众所周知,霍纳综合征的特征是上睑下垂、瞳孔缩小和面部无汗。然而,先天性霍纳综合征相对少见,耳鼻喉科医生对此了解甚少。在本报告中,描述了两例先天性霍纳综合征病例,均为笔者近期在临床实践中遇到的。在第一例中,患者因面部异常而非眼部问题寻求不必要的治疗。对该患者进行的热成像检查证实了他的主诉。有了第一例的经验,第二例的诊断就更容易了。因此,尽管这种综合征很罕见,但在耳鼻喉科医生的日常临床实践中可能会遇到,认识其症状很重要。有人认为,由于医生对这种疾病缺乏了解,一些患者可能未被发现。
