Abstract

Nonspesifi c orbital infl ammatory syndromes (orbital pseudotumor) are a heterogeneous group of conditions. Orbital myositis is a subtype of this group involving one or more orbital muscles. It is quite rare in children. Corticosteroids are the mainstay of therapy. Therapeutic alternatives such as radiotherapy and immune suppressive therapy are experimented in refractory patients. Spontaneous remissions are infrequently reported.

Özet

Non-spesifi k orbital infl amasyon sendromları (orbital psödotümör) oldukça heterojen bir hastalık grubudur. Orbital myozit bu grubun bir ya da birden çok orbital kasını tutan bir alt tipidir. Çocuklarda oldukça ender görülmektedir. Tedavide ilk tercih olarak kortikosteroidler kullanılır. Tedaviye yanıtsız hastalarda radyoterapi ve bağışıklık sistemini baskılayıcı gibi tedavi seçenekleri denenmektedir. Nadiren de olsa kendiliğinden gerileyen olgular bildirilmiştir.
