Septic cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) related to dental infection is a rare clinical event. The septic CST is a disease of high morbidity and mortality. The prompt diagnosis and timely treatment of septic CST is cornerstone of successful outcome. The dental infection should be given due attention, as to prevent CST. In this case report of immunocompetent female, we highlighted the role of den...

infections, it can also cause highly invasive and potentially lethal infections, including necrotizing pneumonia, septic cavernous sinus thrombosis, and pyogenic brain abscess. The fulminant nature of these unusual cases has led many investigators to speculate that CA-MRSA may be more virulent than HA-MRSA. In fact, CA-MRSA strains have been shown to be more virulent than HA-MRSA in neutrophil ...

A case of cavernous sinus thrombosis is usually a complication of severe orbital cellulitis and meningitis. The authors reported a retrograde cavernous sinus thrombosis and orbital cellulitis in an immunocompetence child, due to meningitis.

INTRODUCTION The objective of this article was to report a case of isolated, acute, right-sided sphenoid sinusitis that progressed to contralateral cavernous sinus thrombosis in an 18-year-old male patient. We describe the atypical presentation of this case and discuss the relevant anatomy, pathogenesis, presentation, diagnostic evaluation and treatment. CASE REPORT A case report of sphenoid ...

Cavernous sinus thrombosis is a rare, potentially fatal cause of cerebral venous thrombosis. Infectious causes typically arise from the mid face, orbit, or sinonasal region. We present a case of bilateral cavernous sinus and superior ophthalmic thrombosis secondary to an extreme case of facial cellulitis.

This paper describes a case of cavernous sinus thrombosis The condition developed in patient who had been treated for confirmed COVID-19 Left eye examination findings were as follows: amaurosis;absence periorbital skin sensation;signs orbital cellulitis;ptosis;chemosis;total ophthalmoplegia;exophthalmos;decreased corneal sensation;widened pupil;and absence pupil light reflex In addition, ophtha...

Two patients with untreated polycythaemia vera developed intracranial internal carotid arterial occlusion followed by monocular blindness and the characteristic features of ipsilateral cavernous sinus thrombosis. Primary septic source and signs of systemic infection were absent. It is suggested that the predisposing factors in this unusual syndrome were hyperviscosity and venous sludging induce...
