A rare orbital leiomyosarcoma in a young woman was successfully treated with tumor resection and orbital evisceration. This case highlights effective management of aggressive orbital tumors with no recurrence over a decade.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Orbital tumors can present with varied symptoms, including proptosis.
  • Leiomyosarcoma is a rare malignant mesenchymal tumor that can occur in the orbit.

Observation:

  • A 20-year-old female presented with a 3-month history of progressive right eye herniation.
  • A large retrobulbar mass was identified, causing significant proptosis.

Findings:

  • The orbital mass was surgically resected, with pathological diagnosis of poorly differentiated leiomyosarcoma.
  • The tumor's proximity to the optic nerve complicated the resection.

Implications:

  • Complete resection and subsequent orbital evisceration led to a favorable outcome.
