Retrobulbar hemorrhage may result in sudden accumulation of blood in the retrobulbar space which can lead to an orbital compartment syndrome. This potentially blinding condition is characterized by a rapid increase in intra-orbital pressure. While most commonly associated with orbital trauma, it may rarely occur with Valsalva events in patients on anticoagulants. In this report, we present a case of a retrobulbar hemorrhage secondary to self-induced vomiting, occurring in a patient on no anticoagulation medication.
球后出血可能导致球后间隙血液突然积聚，进而引发眶间隔综合征。这种可能致盲的病症的特征是眶内压力迅速升高。虽然最常与眼眶外伤相关，但在服用抗凝剂的患者中，瓦尔萨尔瓦动作时也可能罕见地发生。在本报告中，我们呈现了一例在未服用抗凝药物的患者中因自我诱导呕吐继发球后出血的病例。
