| Description |
A direct CCF should be suspected in any patient who suddenly develops chemosis, proptosis, and a red eye. When these signs occur after a head injury, the diagnosis should be obvious, but even when there is no history of trauma, one should consider the possibility of a ruptured cavernous aneurysm, particularly if there is a history of preexisting diplopia. |
