Zusammenfassung:	{Figure 2} Brain diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a bilaterally enlarged superior ophthalmic vein [Figure 3] and brain-neck computed tomography (CT) venography demonstrated a bilateral superior ophthalmic vein with dolicoectatic appearance. Proptosis, chemosis, dilated conjunctival veins, blood in Schlemm's canal, uncontrollable elevated intraocular pressure, and retinal hemorrhages are major symptoms and signs of CCFs.
