title: Orbital tumour due rhinosinusal extension in a patient with Wegener's granulomatosis.
abstract: METHODS
  The case is presented of a 49 year-old woman with an orbital mass originating from the rhinosinus. She had a history of Wegener's granulomatosis, refractory to both biological and immunosuppressive therapy. Clinical examination showed proptosis, diplopia, and restriction of ocular movements.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Orbital mass resection was performed, due to its rapid growth, and lack of response to medical treatment.
