Epidermoid tumors are rare intracranial tumors, accounting for 1% of all cases. This report details a rare intra-orbital epidermoid tumor case in a young adult, successfully treated with surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Ophthalmology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Epidermoid tumors are rare, comprising 1% of primary intracranial tumors.
  • They typically occur in the cerebellopontine angle and parasellar cisterns.
  • Intra-orbital location is exceptionally rare, accounting for 4-5% of primary orbital tumors.

Observation:

  • A 23-year-old female presented with progressive right proptosis over six months.
  • The patient's symptoms indicated a space-occupying lesion within the orbit.

Findings:

  • Surgical removal of the intra-orbital tumor was performed via an external orbitotomy approach.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of an epidermoid tumor.

Implications:

Related Experiment Videos

  • This case highlights the importance of considering rare tumor locations for orbital masses.
  • Successful surgical excision demonstrates an effective treatment strategy for intra-orbital epidermoid tumors.
  • Further research into the etiology and management of orbital epidermoid tumors is warranted.
