Abstract
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma may extend into the skull base and cranium but orbital invasion of this cancer is very rare. The aim of this study is to report a case of orbital invasion of nasopharyngeal carcinoma imitating preseptal cellulitis and to emphasize evaluation of whole body system when dealing with orbital problems.
Özet
Nazofarenks kanseri kafa tabanına yayılabilir ve kafa içini işgal edebilir, ancak bu hastalığın orbita tutulumu çok nadirdir. Bu çalışmanınamacı nazofarenks kanserinin metastatik orbita tutulumu olan ve preseptal selülit tablosunu taklit eden olguyu sunmak ve orbita sorunlarındavücudun bir bütün olarak değerlendirilmesi gerektiğini vurgulamaktır
