Orbital tumors can present with skin lesions and may be caused by tuberculosis. This case highlights the importance of considering tuberculosis in orbital tumor diagnosis and treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Orbital tumors can present with varied clinical manifestations.
  • Malignant orbital tumors require prompt diagnosis and treatment.
  • Tuberculosis can affect various organs, including the orbit.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with an orbital tumor and ipsilateral skin lesions at the lateral canthus.
  • Computed tomography (CT) scan confirmed the presence of an orbital tumor, initially suspected to be malignant.

Findings:

  • Histological examination of the tumor revealed tuberculous characteristics.
  • The patient responded well to a treatment regimen of antituberculous drugs and steroids.

Implications:
