Sclerosing pseudotumour of the orbit is a rare idiopathic chronic inflammatory process, which greatly mimics neoplasms both clinically and on imaging studies. It is therefore important to differentiate this entity from true neoplasms and to rule out any systemic associations. We present a rare case of sclerosing orbital pseudotumour in an adult man with no systemic illnesses who presented with painless progressive proptosis of both eyes and showed a gradual initial response to steroid therapy but relapsed after a 2-year interval.
眼眶硬化性假瘤是一种罕见的特发性慢性炎症性病变,在临床和影像学检查中都极易与肿瘤相混淆。因此,将该病变与真性肿瘤区分开来并排除任何系统性关联至关重要。我们报告了一例罕见的成年男性眼眶硬化性假瘤病例,该患者无全身性疾病,表现为双眼无痛性进行性眼球突出,最初对类固醇治疗有逐渐改善的反应,但在2年后复发。
