Totally one-sided: painless unilateral proptosis
An 88-year-old woman’s startling ophthalmologic symptoms were wrongly attributed to infection during an outpatient examination. When treatment offered no improvement, she presented to Johns Hopkins Hospital, where she reported progressive left eye swelling of 2 weeks’ duration. Seven years earlier, she had undergone mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation for breast cancer. Her medical history was also significant for a prior stroke, hypertension, and dementia.
