Sumario: | Intraconal dermoid cysts are very unusual in routine clinical practice. Clinical symptoms depend upon the site and extension of the lesion. Though rare, proptosis, diplopia, and orbital pain are the presenting symptoms encountered in patients with an intraorbital dermoid cyst. Although radiology can be diagnostic, a complete correlation with the final histopathology is always mandatory for its confirmation. Endoscopic excision of the cyst ensures a complete cure for the disease without any intraoperative/postoperative complications. |
