abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To analyse the clinical features, histopathological classifications, treatments and prognosis of orbital tumors in Xinjiang.
  
  
  METHODS
  The authors retrospectively analyse 63 patients (64 eyes) with orbital tumors, including all nationalities which had been received and treated in ophthalmic department of the PLA 474th Hospital during 2005 to 2009.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The nationality composition in our cases was 37 Han, 16 Uygur (16 eyes), 4 Hui, 3 Mongol, and 3 Kazak. Our data mainly consisted of benign tumor., in which, the majority were the vascular tumors, and then were cysts, inflammatory pseudotumor, neurogenic tumors, mixed tumors of lacrimal gland, lipoma and hydatid. The malignant tumors mainly consisted of rhabdomyosarcoma and adenocarcinoma of lacrimal gland, then was non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The operation methods we selected were approaching by orbital skin or anterior skin incision, lateral orbitotomy and approaching by outer canthus incision plus lower fornical conjunctiva incision. The severe postoperative complication was impaired vision, and 2 patients with inflammatory pseudotumor had recrudesced.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  There is no difference on the types and morbidity situation of orbital tumors between Xinjiang and other areas in general, in addition orbital hydatid which was closely related to regional characteristic of Xinjiang, Surgical excision is the main and effective treatment, the prognosis is related to the local tissue extension of tumor, comprehensive pre-operation preparations, careful operation, appropriate post-operative managements and rich clinic experience of doctor.
