title: [Eyelid approach and pediatric orbital tumors: indications and surgical technique. About three children].
abstract: Interdisciplinary collaboration can offer unusual approaches for the treatment of orbital pathologies. The authors report their experience with the eyelid incision in treating three children with epidural orbitary hematoma, dermoid cyst of the upper outer quadrant and a dermoid cyst of the internal inferior quadrant. For all the children, removal was complete and cosmetic results satisfying. The authors discuss the indications and complications of this surgical approach.
