Abstract

CASE REPORT: The case is presented of a 49 year-old woman with an orbital mass originating from the rhinosinus. She had a history of Wegener's granulomatosis, refractory to both biological and immunosuppressive therapy. Clinical examination showed proptosis, diplopia, and restriction of ocular movements. DISCUSSION: Orbital mass resection was performed, due to its rapid growth, and lack of response to medical treatment.
