“…In this study, the mean age of patients (48.3 ± 19.1 years) was higher compared to the studies by Liza et al, which was 43.9 ± 21.7 years [8]. We also reported higher male preponderance (male: female = 67.9%: 32.1%) rather than females preponderance in previous study in Malaysia (male: female = 47.5%: 52.5%) [8] and overseas where females were predominant (53.3%-57.0%) [2,3,5]. This dissimilarity can be due to the low sample size in our study.…”

“…The most frequently encountered primary orbital tumours in adults are lymphoproliferative lesions (8.0%-24.0%) [1][2][3] and cavernous malformations (9.5%-17.0%) [3][4][5]. In children, the most common orbital tumours tend to be benign including cystic (6.0-46.0%) [2][3][4][5][6][7] and vascular lesions (6.0%-31.0%) [2][3][4][5][6][7]. There is a broad spectrum of orbital tumours based on demographics, site of origin, anatomical location and histopathological features.…”

Background: This study was conducted with the objective to examine demographic statistics and histopathological diagnoses of orbital biopsies from cases referred to the Oculoplastic subspecialty of the Ophthalmology department in Hospital Sultanah Bahiyah, Kedah, from 2016 to 2020.Method: This study is a case series of 28 patients who underwent orbital biopsy.Result: A total of 34 orbital biopsies from 28 patients were recorded. The mean age was 48.3 ± 19.1 years old. 22 (78.4%) cases manifested unilaterally and six (21.4%) manifested bilaterally. The commonest presentations were orbital mass (36.6%) and proptosis (24.4%). The mean duration of the presentation was 16.2 ± 19.5 months. Fourteen (50.0%) patients underwent orbital biopsy within six months of symptoms. 52.8% of the tumours are situated at supero-temporal region of the orbit. 53.0% (18) situated in extraconal space of orbit. Out of all, 23 (67.6%) cases were benign and 11 (32.4%) cases were malignant. All were primary in origin (100%). The commonest orbital tumours reported were malignant lymphoma (29.4%), reactive lymphoid hyperplasia (14.7%), non-caseating granulomatous inflammation (11.8%), nongranulomatous inflammation (5.9%) and cavernous haemangioma (5.9%). Of all 10 malignant lymphomas from eight patients (two were bilateral eyes) were all mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) of primary non-Hodgkin lymphomas. None of the cases were reported to be metastasis from the systemic spread. The majority of patients' eyes (20, 58.8%) remained the same visual acuity post-biopsy while six (17.6%) eyes had improvement in visual acuity and eight (23.5%) eyes had reduced postoperative visual acuity.Conclusion: Malignant tumours are more common in the elder age group especially malignant lymphoma which is in contrast to Caucasian populations. Understanding the relative incidence of these various orbital tumours is essential to patient evaluation and management.

“…LMs affecting the periocular area are usually seen in the orbit. However, isolated conjunctival LM may also rarely occur, as in the current case [ 7 , 8 ]. Our case also had a presumed LM on the left hard palate but MRI did not reveal any evidence of LM in the orbit and brain.…”

A 22-year-old woman presented with progressive swelling of the nasal conjunctiva in the left eye. Anterior segment examination revealed a diffuse cystic appearance to the inferonasal bulbar conjunctiva and plica semilunaris. Anterior segment swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT) revealed clear hyporeflective spaces demarcated by hyperreflective septae in the affected conjunctiva, consistent with the diagnosis of lymphatic malformation (LM). Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well circumscribed intraconal mass located inferonasally in the left orbit. Systemic examination revealed a lesion similar to LM on the left hard palate. The left conjunctival mass was excised subtotally. Subsequently, a transconjunctival anterior orbitotomy was performed and the left orbital mass was completely removed intact. Histopathologically, the conjunctival mass was diagnosed as LM and the orbital mass as venous malformation (VM). This case represents a rare coexistence of histopathologically proven conjunctival LM and orbital VM as well as a presumed LM of the hard palate, all 3 lesions occurring in the ipsilateral midface area.

Orbital cystic lesions encompass an array of congenital and acquired conditions with diverse aetiologies, ranging from benign, asymptomatic cysts to sight-threatening infectious or malignant disease. 1,2 They account for 14% to 21% of all orbital lesions. 2 Macroscopically, cystic lesions appear as saccular, fluid-filled structures encapsulated by a clearly demarcated wall. 1 They are commonly classified according to the cellular origin or etiology. 3,4 In a 2004 review of childhood orbital lesions, Shields and Shields 5 categorized cystic lesions by cellular origin (surface epithelium-derived, teratomatous, neural, secondary, infectious, and noncystic lesions with a cystic component). Another classification system, proposed by Kaufman et al, 6 in 1998, organizes cystic lesions by etiology; that is, congenital, acquired, or secondary cysts arising from adjacent structures. This review will expand upon the latter scheme, employing the following classifications; congenital (epithelial and nonepithelial), vascular, infectious and inflammatory, neoplastic, and miscellaneous. True cysts and cyst-like lesions, that is, those which appear cystic on imaging, will be covered, with a particular focus on the radiologic characteristics seen.Congenital lesions, such as dermoid cysts and orbital teratoma, generally present in infancy or early childhood and are usually benign; those which present later in life are more likely acquired, although lesions such as deep orbital dermoids may present in adulthood. [6][7][8] Clinical features vary depending on the size, depth, and aggressiveness of the underlying lesion. Superficial cysts often present with a painless,
