Isolated extraocular orbital mass: a rare presentation of sarcoidosis.
We report a case of orbital sarcoidosis in a 66 year old male who presented with one month history of right eye swelling and intermittent diplopia. MRI revealed an enhancing infiltrative soft tissue mass in the inferior aspect of the right orbit and biopsy of the mass demonstrated non-necrotizing granulomas. Chest CT scan was normal and PET scan showed no other organ involvement. He was treated...
متن کاملFrontal mucocele with an accompanying orbital abscess mimicking a fronto-orbital mucocele: case report
BACKGROUND Mucoceles are slowly expanding cystic lesions with respiratory epithelium containing mucus most commonly affecting the frontal and ethmoidal sinuses. They are caused by obstruction of sinus ostium. Mucoceles exert pressure on the bony boundaries and due to the proximity to the brain and orbit extension to these areas are common. CASE PRESENTATION A case of a frontal mucocele with a...
متن کاملGlial heterotopia in an adult: A rare orbital mass
Heterotopic glial tissue is very rare in the orbit. Our case was an adult, which is unique since most cases reported in literature involve children. We describe a case of a 60-year-old man who presented with an orbital mass, which histopathologically revealed heterotopic glial tissue.
متن کاملA rare orbital tumor: benign isolated orbital schwannoma
Schwannomas, arising from the nerve sheath, are rare tumors of the orbit. They may present with various clinical presentations depending on localization of tumors in the orbit and the nerve from which they arise. Therefore, they should be considered as differential diagnosis of orbital disease. In this study, the case of isolated orbital schwannoma is discussed in the light of the literature. A...
متن کاملMyeloid Sarcoma: A Rare Case of an Orbital Mass Mimicking Orbital Pseudotumor Requiring Neurosurgical Intervention
Objective. A rare case of myeloid sarcoma (MS), previously referred to as granulocytic sarcoma or chloroma, is presented. Representing a unique form of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), MS may rarely occur in adults. Even rarer, MS may occur as the initial presentation of AML. Methods. We report a singular and illustrative case of an orbital pseudotumor mimicking mass in a 65-year-old male as the i...
