摘要
We present a case of a unilateral extraocular muscle haematoma in an adult female patient who was compliant with life-long oral anticoagulation for recurrent deep vein thrombosis. The patient presented with symptoms of sudden-onset left-sided headache radiating to the temporal region, which started 2 days prior. No obvious triggering factors were identified. Cranial and ocular examinations were within normal limits. Imaging revealed a haemorrhage related to the lateral rectus muscle of the left eye. Conservative management was employed with abstinence from anticoagulation for 2 weeks and a weaning regime of oral steroids. Under the clinical review of ophthalmology and interval radiological monitoring, symptoms were reduced with reduction of haemorrhage size. Anticoagulation was reinstated after 2 weeks. To our knowledge, this is the first case of a non-traumatic extraocular muscle haematoma to be reported in a patient on anticoagulation.
