PURPOSE Orbital tumor recurrence is a rare but serious complication in children with retinoblastoma, leading to a high risk of metastasis and death. Therefore, we assume that these recurrences have to be detected and treated as early as possible. Preliminary studies used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate postsurgical findings in the orbit. In this study, we assessed the diagnostic ac...

Intricate resection and complex reconstructive procedures often required for primary and metastatic orbital tumors are facilitated by accurate imaging. A three-dimensional (3D) image can be reconstructed from source axial multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) images to visualize orbital tumors. To assess the utility of 3D images in this setting, the 3D images were reconstructed retrospective...

purpose: we report an unusual case of trabecular carcinoid of the ovary with orbital involvement. methods: we encountered a 49-year-old woman with a complaint of bilateral proptosis. ocular examination revealed severe bilateral proptosis and signs of corneal exposure. orbital ct scan showed massive enlargement of extraocular muscles and optic nerve compression. the patient medical history showe...

rehabilitation of facial defects is a complex task, requiring an individualized design of the technique for each patient. the disfigurement associated with the loss of an eye may result in significant physical and emotional problems. various treatment modalities are available, one of which is the use of implants. although implant-supported orbital prosthesis has a superior outcome, it may not b...

We report a case of a 12-year-old male child who presented with a gradual onset exopthalmos involving the left eye. The plain radiographs of the skull showed hyperostosis of the left orbital roof. The computerized tomography (CT) scan revealed an intradiploic orbital roof tumor with expansion of both the tables of the orbital roof. The tumor was completely excised by an extradural route using a...

BACKGROUND If extra-axial proptosis is by far the most common symptom of infantile malignant orbital tumors, enophthalmos is a rare and undocumented sign. We report the first case of a pediatric metastatic orbital tumor revealed by enophthalmos alone. CASE PRESENTATION A 9-month-old girl was diagnosed with isolated right-sided enophthalmos. An orbital tumor was suspected and computed tomograp...

Orbit has a complex anatomy with multiple structures embedded in it. Primary malignant tumors of the orbit are rare. Orbital neoplasms are usually multifaceted and require an interdisciplinary approach. They occur in adults over the age of 60 years. But benign orbital conditions can occur at young age [1]. After confirming the diagnosis of orbital tumors; various treatment methods performed are...

Sarcomatoid carcinoma is a rare, aggressive tumor, with a special predilection for the upper bronchodigestive tract and oral cavity (1-3), but it may occur in other locations such as the uterus and breast. This tumor has a mixture of carcinoma and sarcoma containing differentiated mesenchymal elements (1-3). Orbital apex syndrome is a rare complex characterized by proptosis and paralysis of ext...

Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous, multisystemic disorder of unknown origin usually affecting young Black-American adults. Bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy and skin or eyelid lesions are the most common symptoms noted. Except for lacrimal gland enlargement, orbital involvement with sarcoidosis is rare and is usually unilateral when it occurs. The aim of this article is to report an isolated case of...
