A

Orbital Cellulitis

21
Q

How do both orbital cellulitis and preseptal cellulitis present similiarly?

A

Flu like symptoms, fever, lid edema, redness, maybe some VA loss

22
Q

How does orbital cellulitis present differently than preseptal cellulitis?

A

Fever is much higher, restricted and painful EOM movement, VA loss much more pronounced

23
Q

How does preseptal cellulitis differ from orbital cellulitis?

A

Generally secondary to an existing infection

24
Q

What is cavernous sinus thrombosis?

A

Cavernous sinus filling with blood; bilateral even if it starts unilateral it will spread; can have bluish area behind the ears, but looks like bilateral orbital cellulitis with some CN involvement

25
Q

What is orbital pseudotumor?

A

Idiopathic inflammation that must be diagnosed by exclusion; abrupt and painful with swelling, lower VA, choroidal folds seen on BIO

A
N - No physical signs or symptoms
O - Only signs related to the lids
S - Soft tissue involvement
P - Proptosis
E - EOM involvement
