Acute Chagas Disease Presenting as Preseptal Cellulitis.

Chagas disease, also known as American trypanosomiasis, is caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, a parasite transmitted by hematophagous triatomine insects (subfamily Triatominae) belonging to the Reduviidae family, order Hemiptera. Infection occurs through contact with the feces of the infected vector at the site of its bite or on intact mucosa. [Pediatr Ann. 2023;52(10):e394-e397.].
