Cavernous hemangiomas are rare orbital tumors. This case highlights their potential to present as multiple lesions, prompting consideration in orbital mass diagnostics.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Neurology
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Orbital masses can present diagnostic challenges.
  • Computed tomography (CT) is a key imaging modality for orbital evaluation.

Observation:

  • Incidental discovery of two distinct left orbital masses in a 48-year-old woman via CT scan.
  • Initial differential diagnosis included lymphoproliferative disorders and systemic diseases.

Findings:

  • Surgical exploration (orbitotomy) confirmed both masses as cavernous hemangiomas.
  • Cavernous hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors.

Implications:

  • Cavernous hemangioma should be included in the differential diagnosis for patients presenting with multiple orbital lesions.
