Lateral Orbital Rim Access Osteotomy and Cryo-Assisted Approach for Surgical Management of Orbital Schwannoma: A Case Report
摘要
A schwannoma is a benign, slow-growing peripheral nerve sheath tumour that originates from Schwann cells. Orbital schwannomas are rare, accounting for only 1% of all orbital neoplasms. Preoperative diagnosis of schwannoma is difficult because of its variable presentation and location. Appropriate early assessment of orbital tumours by CT or MRI and prompt management is warranted to prevent the development of severe complications. Authors would like to present here one such case of orbital schwannoma and management of the same.
