We report a patient with pseudotumor with cystoid macular edema (CME). The initial finding in our case was only CME with a bilateral visual acuity decrease to 20/25. Approximately 3 months later, the visual acuity dropped to light perception in the right eye and 20/200 in the left eye. Computed
A 66-year-old white male presented with complaints of redness of his left eye, blurred vision, lid edema, and an intermittent throbbing pain above his left eye for 4 days. Significant clinical findings included mild hyperemia and edema of the left upper lid, marked engorgement and tortuosity of the
We examined two patients with acute orbital myositis associated with orbital hemorrhage and eyelid ecchymosis. Both patients were young women (aged 22 and 30 years) who had painful proptosis, diplopia, and computed tomographic evidence of single extraocular muscle involvement with spillover of
The case of a 38-year-old woman with continuous unilateral side-locked headache is reported. She had continuous right-sided periorbital pain of mild to moderate intensity for the past 5 months. She also reported a few episodes of pain exacerbations every day. She had no autonomic features. Based on
Idiopathic orbital myositis is a subtype of nonspecific orbital inflammation primarily involving the extraocular muscles. It occurs most frequently in young to middle-aged adults with a 2 to 1 female predominance. The cardinal clinical feature is orbital pain exacerbated by eye movement. Other
We experienced 9 patients with "painful ophthalmoplegia", which included 7 cases of the Tolosa-Hunt syndrome (2 males and 5 females, with ages ranging from 36 to 65 years) and 2 cases of the orbital pseudotumor syndrome (2 females aged 42 and 68). The diagnosis of these syndromes was based upon
A 39-year-old woman developed bilateral proptosis, photophobia, and pain with extraocular movements over the course of 5 days. Her findings initially were ocular pain and photophobia which progressed to periorbital edema and nasal discharge ultimately resulting in proptosis with vertical globe
OBJECTIVE
We present a case of idiopathic orbital inflammatory disease with dilatation and tortuosity of the retinal veins.
METHODS
A 74-year-old man presented at his local eye hospital with left conjunctival edema and pain. He was referred to our hospital. At the initial examination, the
Supervoltage radiotherapy was used in 21 orbits of 19 patients with idiopathic inflammatory orbital pseudotumor. Seventeen orbits (15 patients) were initially treated with systemic corticosteroids, but recurrence of orbital inflammation during dosage tapering was the most frequent indication for
OBJECTIVE
To report an atypical case of orbital inflammatory pseudotumor associated with optic neuritis revealing Behçet's disease.
METHODS
A 37-year-old man was worked up for headache and progressive decreased bilateral visual acuity most profound in the left eye. Initial ophthalmologic exam was
We report two patients who underwent orbital exploration yielding the diagnosis of sclerosing orbital pseudotumor. The presenting symptoms were exophthalmos, visual loss, abnormal ocular mobility, and ocular pain. Computed tomographic (CT) scans showed masses in the orbital apex. Steroids were
A 29-year-old man developed periorbital edema which was initially diagnosed as angioedema. Further clinical investigation by orbital CT and orbital biopsy showed this to be orbital pseudotumor. Immunofluorescence staining for major basic protein clearly demonstrated tissue eosinophilia and
A single injection of TPA (12-0-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate) into the superior rectus muscle of New Zealand white rabbits produced inflammation and edema, followed by fibrosis and muscle restriction. Strain gauge measurements showed a 60% increase in muscle restriction at 24 hours and an
BACKGROUND
Orbital myositis is a subtype of nonspecific orbital inflammation confined to one or more of the extraocular muscles.
METHODS
Three female patients presented presumed orbital myositis, in each of whom the diagnosis was suspected clinically and confirmed by the computed tomography (CT)
