Intraorbital amyloid.

چکیده
Several reviews of ocular amyloidosis have emphasized its origins in the conjunctiva and lid (Halasa, I965; Stansbury, I965; Smith and Zimmerman, I966). The occurrence of orbital amyloid has been considered extremely rare, its pathogenesis speculative, and its place in the spectrum of diseases associated with amyloid deposition uncertain (Groniowski, Bernardczykowa, and Norn, I965; Howard, I966; Kassman and Sundmark, I967). For this reason it is felt that further attention should be called to this entity.

متن کاملTraumatic bilateral intraorbital (subperiosteal) hematoma associated with epidural hematoma: case report.
Extradural hematoma (EDH) is a frequent lesion, with an incidence varying from 0.2 to 6% in patients admitted to hospital due to traumatic head injury. The higher incidence is found in patients with more severe injuries. The association of EDH with subperiosteal intraorbital hematomas is rarely reported, and we were not able to find in the literature any report of traumatic bilateral intraorbit...
متن کاملMinimal Invasive Excision of Intraorbital Dermoid Cyst
Dermoid cysts are benign tumors that represent the simplest form of teratoma (1). Approximately 7% of dermoid cysts affect the head and neck region, and within this region, they are commonly found along the orbital walls(2). Orbital dermoid cysts occur most commonly along the lateral aspect of the orbit, in approximately 69% of cases. Intraorbital location is relatively rare for these lesions. ...
متن کاملUnexpected finding in ocular surface trauma: a large intraorbital foreign body (bullet).
Sometimes intraorbital foreign bodies lead to unexpected findings. A 16-year old boy was referred due to ocular surface trauma. A conjunctival laceration was detected at the level of the left caruncle with associated left exotropia, reduced adduction as well as a preretinal hemorrhage along the nasal periphery of the fundus. A blow-out fracture of the medial orbital wall was suspected and a CT ...
متن کاملComputed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings of intraorbital granular cell tumor (Abrikossoff's tumor): a case report.
BACKGROUND Granular cell tumors are rare neoplasms which can occur in any part of the body. Granular cell tumors of the orbit account for only 3 % of all granular cell tumor cases. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the orbit have proven useful for diagnosing orbital tumors. However, the rarity of intraorbital granular cell tumors poses a significant diagnostic challenge for ...
