Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Orbital teratoma is a known cause of proptosis in neonates but it is rare in adults.

Anterior orbitotomy with cyst excision was done with retrieval of a canine tooth. COMMENT: This report documents a unique case of orbital teratoma presenting in an adult with well formed canine tooth inside. Microcornea, corectopia and cataract were other distinctive coexisting features of our case.
