Unilateral exophthalmos through non-Hodgkinian malignant lymphoma.
A 57-year old male patient with unilateral exophthalmos was transferred to our hospital from an Ophthalmologic Clinic for suspicion of Graves' disease. Lateral skull X-ray showed the optic holes and orbits within normal limits. Orbital echography and CT scan revealed an intraorbital tumor which on histopathologic examination proved to be malignant lymphoma.
