Abstrakt: Background: Orbital venous anomalies can result in significant morbidity and have been reported in association with other venous anomalies, some with the potential for serious complication.
Methods/results: We present a case of an orbital venous anomaly coexistent with a large cerebellar venous angioma and a linear sebaceous naevus. Clinical features, associations, complications and management principles are presented.
Conclusion: Upon clinical recognition of an orbital venous anomaly, brain imaging and appropriate clinical assessment should be considered in light of the possibility of coexistence of potentially life-threatening lesions.
