Systemic sarcoidosis with bilateral orbital involvement: MR findings.
A 43-year-old woman with diplopia had a disconjugate gaze on physical examination. MR images revealed enlarged, abnormally enhancing extraocular muscles and lacrimal glands bilaterally. Biopsy results were consistent with sarcoidosis. Chest radiographs and CT scans were normal. Clinical and MR findings improved after appropriate medical therapy.
