Isolated orbital periphlebitis in the context of nonspecific orbital inflammation is rare. This case series describes 3 patients with periphlebitis of the superior ophthalmic vein, 2 of which were confirmed with pathology. All 3 cases had a history of Graves hyperthyroidism. Superior ophthalmic vein periphlebitis is a rare form of orbital inflammation presenting with proptosis and motility restriction yet few inflammatory signs. It may be associated with autoimmune hyperthyroidism and represent a rare feature of thyroid eye disease, or perhaps could be an overlap syndrome between thyroid eye disease and nonspecific orbital inflammation. Treatment response is variable and may require a prolonged course of steroids or other immunosuppressive medications.
孤立性眼眶外周静脉炎在非特异性眼眶炎症中较为罕见。本病例系列描述了 3 例上腔静脉外周静脉炎患者,其中 2 例经病理证实。所有 3 例均有格雷夫斯甲状腺功能亢进症病史。上腔静脉外周静脉炎是一种罕见的眼眶炎症形式,表现为眼球突出和运动受限,但炎症体征较少。它可能与自身免疫性甲状腺功能亢进症有关,代表甲状腺眼病的一种罕见特征,或者可能是甲状腺眼病和非特异性眼眶炎症之间的重叠综合征。治疗反应各不相同,可能需要长期使用类固醇或其他免疫抑制药物。
