title: Giant Orbital Hydrocystoma in Children: Case Series and Review of the Literature.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe the clinical features, ancillary diagnostic studies, and treatment outcomes in a cohort of pediatric patients with giant orbital hydrocystomas.
  
  
  METHODS
  Retrospective case series.
  
  
  METHODS
  Pediatric patients with giant orbital hydrocystomas treated in the practice of one surgeon (PDL).
  
  
  METHODS
  A retrospective review of the clinical charts of pediatric patients with orbital hydrocystoma was performed and diagnostic information collected. Results were reviewed and compared with reported clinical data in the literature.
  
  
  METHODS
  Clinical presentation and histopathological findings of pediatric orbital hydrocystomas.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Three pediatric cases of giant orbital hydrocystoma were encountered, each with an unusual feature, including deep orbital location, occurrence following trauma, and eccrine pathology.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Giant orbital hydrocystomas may present in the pediatric population. Ophthalmologists should be cognizant of this entity when evaluating a child with a large, cystic orbital mass.
