Dr. Bharat B. Aggarwal | Dr. Dishant Aagaal | Dr. Sanjay Gupta
Abstract: Orbital myxomas are extremely rare benign tumors. Myxomas are usually found in the heart and are formed by stellate or spindle cells in a myxoid stroma containing mucopolysaccharides. We describe a case of 69-year-old female patient who presented with left orbital extraconal swelling with proptosis and restricted ocular movement. The MRI of the brain and orbit showed a well- defined lobulated extraconal mass. Single stage Complete surgical excision and blepharoplasty was done and histopathological diagnosis of an orbital myxoma was made.
