  • Title: Intraorbital subperiosteal hematoma due to paranasal mucocele--case report.
    Author: Aoki H, Tanaka Y, Niki Y, Kamada K, Fujita T.
    Journal: Neurol Med Chir (Tokyo); 1997 Aug; 37(8):627-9. PubMed ID: 9301201.
    Abstract:
    A 68-year-old female was admitted with a rare intraorbital subperiosteal hematoma manifesting as sudden orbital pain, progressive blepharoptosis, and diplopia. Computed tomography showed a biconvex high density mass in the superomedial part of the left orbit, which was recognized to be a subperiosteal hematoma intraoperatively. The eroded orbital roof between the frontal sinus and orbit was a result of mechanical compression by the mucocele. Infection extending into the orbit was important in causing the hemorrhage.
