Abstract
Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare but distinct soft tissue tumor with unique histopathological and electron microscopic features. Orbital involvement is rare with only few reports published in the literature. ASPS have an indolent clinical course, but it is known to metastasize. Primary modality of treatment is surgery followed by adjuvant treatment. This case is a unique presentation with orbital mass with on and off bleeding. This is the largest orbital ASPS for which orbital exenteration was performed.Entities:
