Abstract
Purpose: We report a case of Tolosa-Hunt syndrome with multiple orbital myositis identified via orbital magnetic resonance imaging in a patient with Crohn's disease who developed right eye pain and binocular horizontal diplopia.Case summary: A 46-year-old woman visited our clinic with a 2-month history of right eye pain and migraine, as well as a 3-day history of acute horizontal diplopia. She had previously been diagnosed with Crohn's disease and was taking immunosuppressive drugs. In the eye movement test, esotropia and an abduction limitation of -3.0 in the right eye were observed on the Krimsky test. There were no specific findings in anterior segment and fundus examinations. Orbital magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple extraocular muscle enhancement in the right eye and multiple extraocular muscle hypertrophy in the left eye. The patient was diagnosed with binocular multiple orbital myositis and right Tolosa-Hunt syndrome; she was treated with high-dose steroids for 3 days followed by lower dose oral medications. During the first week of treatment, the right eye pain disappeared and the right eye abduction limitation showed slight improvement. After 3 months of treatment, the right eye abduction limitation and esotropia completely disappeared.Conclusions: Orbital myositis and Tolosa-Hunt syndrome are idiopathic, nonspecific chronic granulomatous diseases with painful ophthalmoplegia. We describe a rare case in which the two diseases appear together.

Abstract
Purpose: To report a case of idiopathic orbital inflammation presenting with isolated myositis of the inferior oblique muscle. Case summary: A 54‐year‐old man presented with swelling on the left lower lid, pain on superonasal and inferonasal gaze, and binocular diplopia for 2 months. His head was tilted to the right by about 5° and mild conjunctival injection and 3 mm narrowing of palpebral fissure of the left eye compared to the other eye were observed. Eight prism diopter (PD) left hypertropia and 4 PD intermittent esotropia were noted on primary gaze, which worsened on leftward gaze, downward gaze, and left head tilt. Orbital magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed enhanced hypertrophy of the left inferior oblique muscle. Systemic work‐up for possible inflammatory diseases yielded negative results. Therefore, a presumptive diagnosis of idiopathic isolated myositis of the left inferior oblique muscle was made. The patient was treated with 60 mg of oral corticosteroid per day for the first week, and the dose was tapered for 1 month as the symptoms reduced. Two months later, the patient became free from any symptoms and follow-up orbital MRI showed a significant decrease in size of the left inferior oblique muscle. There have been no signs of recurrence for 7 months. Conclusions: A presumptive diagnosis of idiopathic isolated myositis of the inferior oblique muscle was made in a patient with swelling of the left lower lid and binocular diplopia based on orbital MRI and systemic work‐up. Good results were achieved with oral corticosteroid therapy.
