This case study documents the journey of an outreach youth clinic from its inception to its current practice. It reviews the barriers and enablers to attending the outreach youth clinic as well as determining the health concerns that have prompted young people to access the service. A case study method was applied to review agency evaluation reports and open-ended feedback surveys completed by service users. An ongoing reflective health practitioner’s journal was also kept by the clinicians. The results identify sexual and reproductive health, and mental health, as the main concerns for which young people seek help. Additionally, confidentiality and privacy issues are of concern, while parental and caregiver’s understanding acts as an enabler for young people to obtain better health. Multi-agency collaboration is highlighted while the significance of a robust connection between the collaborating services and leadership from the school is also recognised. The outreach youth clinic is providing a youth-specific service that has had good utilisation. However, a solid collaboration with the school and the community health sector is crucial if a service such as this is to be maintained and sustained.

Paranasal mucoceles are a type of cysts that evolve slowly and are asymptomatic; this poses a difficulty in diagnosing the patient because the symptoms can go unnoticed. The mucocele evolves unpredictably. On the one hand, it can become infected turning into pyoceles and on the other hand, it can invade important regions such as the orbital, cranial or genian regions, creating facial asymmetry. This is a retrospective case study of 37 patients diagnosed with sinus mucoceles, followed up by clinical examination and paraclinical tests such as CT and MRI scans. The biochemical components of the liquid from within the mucocele were analyzed and the following criteria were recorded: NaCl-, Cl-, Na+ and cholesterine as well as cellular components such as mastocytes, macrophages, hematocytes and leucocytes. In all cases, the treatment option was surgery with favorable post-operative and follow-up evaluation. The mucoceles that appeared post-operatively (maxillary and ethmoid sinuses) evolved more rapidly than the mucoceles that were induced byan external injury. Longer follow-up of operated patients permitted a more timely diagnosis of recurrences.
