| Abstract |
|
The orbital neurilemmoma originates exclusively from Schwann cells of the cranial nerve, any myelinated peripheral nerve, and sympathetic nerve. The incidence of this benign neoplasia is reported as rare and arises usually in the intraconal. A 28-year-old female complained of lid swelling and palpable mass on the right upper lid for a period of 8 months. The mass wsa excised totally and histopathologic examination revealed a typical neurilemmoma(Schwannoma). In this case, there was no proptosis because the mass was located extraconally. It is to report a rate case of extraconal neurilemmoma of the orbit. |
