Orbital paraganglioma: A case report

Journal Title: Eye Science (Yanke Xuebao) - Year 2021, Vol 36, Issue 8

Abstract

Orbital paraganglioma is a rare disease and mostly belongs to non-functional tumors. In this report, we described a middle-aged female admitted to our hospital with the chief complaint of weak lifting of her right eyelid. Orbital computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination detected an intra-orbital mass in the right eye. Complete excision was conducted, and post-operative histopathological and immunohistochemical examination revealed the mass to be orbital paraganglioma. Within the 3-year follow-up, the patient showed no recurrence.
