Observation:

  • A 5-year-old child presented with bilateral proptosis.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed IPT.
  • The condition involved both orbits and paranasal sinuses.

Findings:

  • Bilateral idiopathic inflammatory pseudotumor of the orbits with paranasal sinus involvement.
  • Clinical manifestation of bilateral proptosis at age 5.
