Overview
The Jefferson classification and Ishikawa classification has been used to localize cavernous sinus lesions. According to the the location of the intracranial orifice of the optic canal and the entry of the maxillary nerve into the cavernous sinus, lesions may be classified in Ishikawa and Jefferson classification into three groups: Anterior lesions, middle lesions and posterior lesions. Although more number of patients could be classified in Ishikawa classification, there is no advantage of Ishikawa classification over Jefferson with regard to determination of etiology of cavernous sinus lesions.
