Multifocal thrombophlebitis and orbital cellulitis

Abstract

Objective: Rare co-existance of disease or pathology Background: Multifocal superficial thrombophlebitis is a rare clinical manifestation with wide differential diagnosis in rela-tion to the background disease. Case Report: Here we report on 2 patients who presented with a systemic inflammatory response, multifocal thrombophle-bitis, and orbital inflammation in whom a diagnosis of a defined background disease could not be established. Conclusions: The clinical pattern of our 2 cases might represent a distinctive, not yet defined systemic medical condition.
