A yellowish subconjunctival lesion in an infant-congenital orbital fat herniation.

Matthias K Bernhard1, Sven Starke, Wolfgang Hirsch.   

Abstract

A very rare case of a congenital orbital fat herniation is demonstrated. Clinically, the child presented a progressive, small yellowish and mobile mass on the temporal orbital wall of her right eye. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a fat isointensive structure in T1-weighing without contrast enhancement. The possible aetiology of the herniation could be a congenital weakness of the Tenon's capsule or the conjunctival fornix.
