Superior ophthalmic vein thrombosis (SOVT) is a rare and potentially sight and life-threatening condition. Although broadly classified into septic and aseptic causes, its etiology is widely varied and presents clinically with a range of signs and symptoms, leading to diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This case series describes three cases of radiologically confirmed SOVT, presenting in close succession at an ophthalmology department in a single center in Trinidad and Tobago. All three cases were managed with a multidisciplinary approach and ultimately demonstrated full clinical resolution.
眼上静脉血栓形成(SOVT)是一种罕见且可能危及视力和生命的疾病。尽管大致可分为感染性和非感染性病因,但其病因广泛多样,临床症状表现各异,这给诊断和治疗带来了挑战。本病例系列描述了三例经影像学确诊的SOVT,在特立尼达和多巴哥一个中心的眼科部门相继出现。所有三例均采用多学科方法进行治疗,最终临床症状完全缓解。
