Abstract

In our case inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor IMT is located at the greater wing of the sphenoid bone in the lateral wall of the orbit. The patient was referred to our clinic with the history of left proptosis. Computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed that a fesion with lytic appearance was extending medially and laterally in the lateral orbital wall. The lesion was totally removed. Histopathologic evaluation revealed an IMT. There was no recurrence 15 months follow up period. IMT is a benign, non-metastasing proliferation with the potential of recurrence. Despite the malignant appearance, this tumor is benign. This case expands our knowledge regarding the possible sites of involvement of the IMT. We should also distinguish that this tumor might be one of the causes of unilateral proptosis in children and young adults.

Özet

İnflamatuar miyofibroblastik tümör (İMT), olgumuzda orbita dış duvarında sfenoid kemiğin büyük kanadından gelişmiştir. Hasta sol gözde gelişen proptozîs nedeniyle kliniğimize sevk edilmişti. Bilgisayarlı tomografi ve manyetik rezonans görüntülemede orbita dış duvarında destrüksiyon ile mediai ve laterale doğru uzanan kitle görüldü. Tümör tümüyle alındı. Histopatoloji raporu İMT tümör olarak bildirildi. On beş aylık izlem süresince rekürrens saptanmadı. Olgumuzda üç ay içinde hızla ilerleyerek kemik destrüksiyonuna neden olan lezyon malign izlenimi vermesine karşın benign tümördür. Bu olgu İMT'ün olası yerleşimi konusunda yeni bir bulgudur. Çocuk ve genç yetişkinlerde ünilateral proptozisin nedenleri arasında düşünülmelidir.
