“…8 Habitualmente, se manifiestan como una masa unilateral aunque en la literatura se describen casos bilaterales. 6,9,11,12 Afectan con mayor frecuencia a personas jóvenes sin diferencias en cuanto al sexo. 5,8,9,11,12 With the diagnosis of acute thrombosis of the orbital varix and given the high risk of blindness of the patient, urgent orbital decompression was decided on.…”

“…The best overview is given in a coronal plane; involvement of the globe is best demonstrated in transverse and sagittal planes. Frequent vascular lesions in the intraconal compartment are arteriovenous fistulas (in the majority of cases in presence of carotidvenous fistulas and less frequently as the primary type) and varices [23,24]. Dilatations of vessels are best seen in coronal planes.…”

This contribution provides an overview of diseases of eye and orbit and their appearance on magnetic resonance imaging. In recent years the diagnosis of eye and orbit pathology has profited significantly from increasingly sophisticated technical developments in the field of tomographic methods. Due to the small size of the examination area the improvement in spatial resolution and soft tissue contrast leads to an increase in image quality. In most clinical questions concerning eye and orbit pathologies magnetic resonance imaging is superior to computed tomography and should be early performed.

“…3 Our patient appeared to have intermittent dilation of the episcleral varix in the absence of noticeable proptosis or exacerbation on the Valsalva maneuver for a few years before symptomatic proptosis occurred. Delays in diagnosis were also compounded by the rare coincidence of this orbital tumor with polyarticular JIA.…”

“…Color Doppler ultrasound and orbital venography, however, have been useful. 3 Conservative treatment is the rule, except when complications have occurred, 4 as surgery can be complicated and hazardous.…”
