title: Embolisation of Orbital Varix via the Superficial Temporal Vein.
abstract: A case of orbital varix is presented, in which the lesion was successfully treated by means of embolisation with Guglielmi detachable coils, via the superficial temporal vein. Reports of endovascular treatment via transvenous route of orbital varix are lacking, only one case having previously been presented in the literature.We stress endovascular management for such an entity.
