The purpose of this study was to review an interesting case of recurrent orbital sinus histiocytosis. The patient initially failed surgery, chemotherapy, and steroid therapy, only to have a durable response to low-dose radiation therapy of the orbits, lasting 6 and 11 years, respectively. Because there are few documented responses to radiotherapy, we present a case report in conjunction with the clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic information as well as a literature review of similar cases.
本研究的目的是回顾一例复发性眼眶鼻窦组织细胞增多症的有趣病例。该患者最初手术、化疗和类固醇治疗均失败，却对眼眶低剂量放射治疗产生了持久反应，分别持续了6年和11年。由于对放射治疗有记录的反应很少，我们结合临床、影像学和组织病理学信息以及对类似病例的文献综述，呈现此病例报告。
