ABSTRACT

Introduction: orbital tumors are rare and can arise in the walls or in the content of the orbit or from the closest cavities. Imaging techniques and especially computed tomography is an indispensable tool in understanding ophthalmic diseases.
Objective: describe the tomography findings in patients with orbital tumors.
Methods: a descriptive and prospective study was carried out comprising a series of cases of patients from the provincial doctor´s ophthalmology office at "Vladimir Ilich Lenin" Hospital, who presented orbit tumor during the period from January 2009 to January 2010, in conjunction with the radiology and pathological anatomy services. The sample was made up of 17 patients seen at the ophthalmology consultation, all of who had been diagnosed with orbital tumors and who were not allergic to the contrast.
Results: the age group between 51 to 60 years old predominated over the rest of the patients (5 cases to 29.4 %). Exophthalmus was the prevailing sign upon physical examination and protosis was the most frequent tomography finding (13 patients to 76.4 %). The extraconal location of the orbital processes prevailed (9 patients to 52.9 %), as well as heterogeneous lesions that (14 cases to 82.3 %).
Conclusion: CT Scan (computed Tomography) constitutes the imaging method of choice in all patients who are clinically suspected to present orbital tumors because it allows to identify the location, proptosis presence and the structure of the tumoral lesions.
