title: [Fibrosarcoma of the orbit (author's transl)].
abstract: During a period of 8 months a capsulated orbital tumour--not adherent the orbital walls or the bulbus--developed in a 21-year-old female patient. The tumour was exstirpated in toto. The histological findings show a fibrosarcoma with poorly differentiated cells, giant cells and numerous mitoses. The comparatively small incidence of the tumour as well as the prognosis quoad vitam are discussed.
