Abstract

Relatively rare case of orbital cavernous angioma is described. Disease duration in a female patient aged 37 years was approximately 4 years. Clinical signs: headache, mild exotropia leftward, sometimes diplopia. Also we revealed left proptosis, left eye vision field narrowing, left hyperopia, visual acuity of the right eye 0.9, of the left eye — 0.3. We decided to remove the paraplasm using transcranial frontoorbital trepanation. At long-consuming operation paraplasm was totally removed, we managed to keep optic nerve and neuromuscular apparatus of the orbit. After surgery we noted visual acuity increase from 0.3 to 0.9 on the affected side, proptosis decrease, diplopia cessation, headache regression.
