title: Orbital neurilemoma.
abstract: The diagnosis of orbital tumors is a challenging one. Neurilemomas are among the rarer causes of lesions in this location and usually are curable by local excision. The results of tests used in diagnosing orbital tumors are inconsistent in patients with this disease entity. Four patients with orbital neurilemoma are reported. Radiographic (including arteriogram, venogram, and computerized axial tomography) and ultrasonic findings were helpful in making the diagnosis.
