Intraorbital metastases.
Intraorbital metastases are rare. Tumors that metastasize more frequently in the orbit are: tumors of the breast, thyroid, prostate, spinocellular epithelioma, urinary bladder and Ewing sarcoma with an orbital location. The dominant feature of intraorbital metastases is exophthalmos. Ten cases of intraorbital metastasis are presented, histopathologically confirmed following operation. There are also 3 cases with intraorbital metastases histopathologically nonconfirmed during operation but which were included in a metastatic syndrome.
