Overview
The prevalence of cavernous sinus thrombosis is approximately 1.32–1.57 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. The mortality rate of cavernous sinus thrombosis is approximately 20%. The combination of anticoagulants with antibiotics in treatment of cavernous sinus thrombosis has significantly decreased the mortality rate of it. Patients of all age groups may develop cavernous sinus thrombosis. The incidence of cavernous sinus thrombosis significantly increases with age. women are more commonly affected by cavernous sinus thrombosis than men. The women to men ratio is approximately 3.7–5.3 to 1.
