  • Title: Acute orbital myositis: a case report.
    Author: Lockie P.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Ophthalmol; 1985 Aug; 13(3):287-91. PubMed ID: 4074556.
    Abstract:
    A case of acute orbital myositis is presented in this report. CT scanning provided an immediate diagnosis and hence institution of treatment. There was a typically rapid response to steroids. A previous presentation, prior to the advent of CT, had been misdiagnosed as Tolosa-Hunt syndrome. Orbital pseudotumour can be acute or chronic, and acute orbital myositis is now regarded as one of five subtypes of the former.
