Orbital Cavernous Hemangioma Causing Spontaneous Compressive Hemorrhage.

Cavernous hemangiomas are the most common tumors of the posterior cone of the orbit in adults. They are discovered in a fortuitous manner or in front of the appearance of a progressive exophthalmia.The authors report through a complete literature review (PubMed) patients of retro-orbital cavernous hemangioma revealed by spontaneous compressional hemorrhage from 1984 to 2017.This review is illustrated by a case of sharp decrease in visual acuity secondary to orbital cavernous hemangioma hemorrhage.The authors detail the management and the evolution of all these patients.
