Overview

Cavernous sinus thrombosis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause severe headache, pain with eye movements, high fever, proptosis, periorbital swelling, and ophthalmoplegia, such as orbital cellulitis, acute Angle-Closure Glaucoma, intracranial tumors and, carotid cavernous fistula and tolosa-Hunt syndrome.

Differentiating cavernous sinus thrombosis] from other Diseases

Cavernous sinus thrombosis must be differentiated from other diseases that cause severe headache, pain with eye movements, high fever, proptosis, periorbital swelling, and ophthalmoplegia, such as orbital cellulitis, acute Angle-Closure Glaucoma, intracranial tumors and, carotid cavernous fistula and tolosa-Hunt syndrome.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]
