RESUMEN
This case report aims to describe the first report of bilateral aseptic cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) with a recent history of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination. A 50-year-old woman presented with bilateral proptosis, decreased vision, and ophthalmoplegia 16 days following CoronaVac® vaccine. The visual acuity of the left eye was 20/150, while the right eye was no light perception with a hyperemic optic nerve head. She had a history of hyperthyroidism and currently on warfarin consumption. Laboratory results depicted elevated free T4, free T3, international normalized ratio, and low protein S and C. Magnetic resonance imaging showed bilateral CST, and high-dose methylprednisolone along with fondaparinux was given. The symptoms were significantly resolved, with the visual acuity of the left eye being improved to 20/20 but not the right eye. Bilateral CST has not been previously reported following inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. The underlying systemic conditions should be taken into consideration for the possibility of the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine-related event.
