Orbital pseudotumor in Crohn's colitis.
A 17-year-old woman presented with orbital pain, diplopia, ptosis, and upper lid swelling due to an orbital pseudotumor involving the superior rectus-levator complex. Although she had no prior symptoms of chronic inflammatory bowel disease, diagnostic evaluation revealed Crohn's colitis. Diagnostic evaluation of patients with "idiopathic" orbital pseudotumor should include testing to rule out chronic inflammatory bowel disease.
