Overview
Common risk factors in the development of cavernous sinus thrombosis include: Neoplasms, facial infections, sinusitis, otitis media, dental infections, sepsis, factor V Leiden mutation, Prothrombin G20210A mutation, antithrombin III deficiency, protein C or S deficiency, increased factor VIII, antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, hyperhomocysteinemia, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, pregnancy, obesity, dehydration, autoimmune disease, uncontrolled diabetes, steroid use, chemotherapy, oral contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy and inflammatory bowel diseases. Less common risk factors in the development of cavernous sinus thrombosis include: Puerperium, fibrous thyroiditis, arterio-venous malformations andimmunosuppression.
