To present a young female patient with left anterior orbital leiomyoma that originates from the supraorbital neurovascular bundle.
A 41-year-old female patient was admitted to our clinic with a complaint of swelling of the left upper eyelid. Based on the ophthalmological and imaging assessments, the excisional biopsy with the preliminary diagnosis of dermoid cyst was planned. The histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations of excised sample revealed surprisingly that the tumour was a leiomyoma. No recurrence was detected in the patient's follow-up.
Although it is rare, orbital leiomyoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with orbital tumour.
介绍一名年轻女性患者,其左眼眶前部平滑肌瘤起源于眶上神经血管束。
一名41岁女性患者因左上眼睑肿胀前来我院就诊。基于眼科和影像学评估,计划进行切除活检,初步诊断为皮样囊肿。切除样本的组织病理学和免疫组化检查令人惊讶地发现该肿瘤为平滑肌瘤。患者随访未发现复发。
尽管眼眶平滑肌瘤罕见,但在眼眶肿瘤患者的鉴别诊断中应予以考虑。
