6. How do you explain the swelling of the eyelids and conjunctivae, the exophthalmos, the dilation of the retinal veins and the edema of the optic nerve in this patient?

9. Explain how osteomyelitis (inflamation of the bone and marrow) of the upper or lower jaw following tooth extraction could lead to infectious cavernous sinus thrombosis. (Hint: What important venous structure lies in the infratemporal fossa?)

Additional Note
Infectious cavernous sinus thrombosis was almost invariably fatalprior to the advent of antibiotics. In this era of intensive antibiotictreatment the condition is not as common as it used to be but the prognosis, should one contract it, is grim —80% mortality and in the survivors 75% after effects, mainly involving eye muscles and changes in visual acuity.
