Abstract

Cavernous hemangiomas are the most frequent tumors in orbital region. Hemeangiopricytomas and solitary fibrous tumors are uncommon neoplasms found in different location, including the orbit. We present a 50-years-old man with coincide unilateral orbital cavernous hemangioma and solitary fibrous tumor. The initial diagnosis was orbital tumor. Computed tomography (CT) was performed. On CT two intraconal solid mass in right orbit positioned relatively near each other Antro-postriorly were observed. Tumors were excised totally with lateral orbitotomy method and sent for histopathologic examination. To our knowledge, only one case report of splenic hemangiopricytoma adjacent to cavernous hemangioma of colon has been reported in the literature. Our case shows the coincidence of hemangiopricytoma adjacent to cavernous hemangioma is possible and should be considered.
