Solitary eosinophilic granuloma of the orbit: a case report

Bulletin de la Société belge d'ophtalmologie, No. 305, Year 2007

The authors report a case of eosinophilic granuloma involving the roof of the orbit in a 3-year-old girl. The clinical presentation and the imaging features suggested a malignant tumor and the final diagnosis was obtained by biopsy with histopathologic examination. Despite its alarming radiologic appearance, there was spontaneous healing of the eosinophilic granuloma.
