Lytic Paget disease as a cause of orbital cholesterol granuloma.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A case of histologically confirmed Paget disease of the orbit produced a lesion that appeared both clinically and histologically similar to a cholesterol granuloma. This case is unique because of the unusual location of the lesion, its presentation in a patient with no other manifestations of Paget disease, and the histological picture produced by the disease.

Obstructing lesions of the endolymphatic sac and duct mimicking Ménière's disease.
In this retrospective case series and literature review, we demonstrate that temporal bone lesions that obstruct the endolymphatic sac or duct can cause symptoms of Ménière's disease. This finding is likely attributable to endolymphatic hydrops; initially, such cases typically masquerade as Ménière's disease. Between July 1995 and April 2002, a total of 379 patients were treated for an initial ...
متن کاملUncommon orbital cholesterol granuloma of the medial wall approached using a 3D endonasal endoscope
We here described a case of a 57-year-old woman with a sudden onset of mild ptosis and deficit of abduction in her right eye with diplopia. After ophthalmologic evaluation, she performed a CT scan with evidence of a lesion at the level of the orbital medial wall. To determine the nature of this lesion the patient underwent surgery and the surgical excision of the mass was performed through a ri...
متن کاملFrom the archives of the AFIP. Radiologic spectrum of Paget disease of bone and its complications with pathologic correlation.
Paget disease of bone is a common disorder affecting approximately 3%-4% of the population over 40 years of age. The pathologic abnormality in Paget disease is excessive and abnormal remodeling of bone. Three pathologic phases have been described: the lytic phase (incipient-active), in which osteoclasts predominate; the mixed phase (active), in which osteoblasts cause repair superimposed on the...
متن کاملWegener's granulomatosis of the paranasal sinuses with orbital and central nervous system involvement-diagnostic imaging.
Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) is a systemic vasculitis that can affect any organic system, but primarily involves the upper and lower respiratory tracts and the kidneys. WG relatively frequently affects the nervous system (in 30-50%), usually in the form of peripheral or cranial neuropathy. Involvement of the brain is reported in a very small percentage of patients (2%-8%). Three major mechanis...
متن کاملCholesterol granuloma of the orbit: An atypical presentation
Cholesterol granuloma is a rare, well-defined lesion of the orbit. In the orbit, diploe of the frontal bone is involved almost exclusively. We report an atypical case of cholesterol granuloma involving superomedial quadrant of orbit. A 42-year-old male presented with progressive, painless, proptosis with infero-temporal displacement of left eye. A large mass was felt beneath the bony orbital ma...
