ABSTRACT

RESUMO O pseudotumor esclerosante de órbita é um subtipo raro de pseudotumor inflamatório idiopático de órbita. É mais comum em adultos e apresenta diagnóstico de exclusão. A primeira linha de tratamento são os esteroides. O subtipo esclerosante apresenta resposta moderada aos esteroides devido à predominância de fibrose e colágeno na histologia. Relatamos o caso de um paciente com diagnóstico histológico de pseudotumor esclerosante de órbita que teve boa resposta ao tratamento com corticoide associado à azatioprina.


ABSTRACT Sclerosing orbital pseudotumor is a rare subtype of idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor. It's more common in adults and presents diagnosis of exclusion. Steroids represent the first option of treatment. The sclerosing orbital pseudotumor subtype shows moderate response to steroids due to the predominance of fibrosis and collagen in its histology. We report on a case of a patient with histologic diagnosis of sclerosing orbital pseudotumor successfully treated with corticosteroid associated with azathioprine.
