ABSTRACT
Orbital lymphangiomas are benign vascular hamartomas that may be found in the conjunctiva, the eyelids, the orbit, or elsewhere in the head and neck region. Deep lymphangiomatous lesions are classically characterized by acute onset of a fulminant proptosis resulting from spontaneous hemorrhage within the orbit. Complete surgical excision is often difficult because of the infiltrative nature of the tumor.We report one case of lymphangiomas considered to be associated with cavernous hemangioma which could not be removed completely by several surgical excisions and was exenterated because of orbital abscess of unknown origin and septic condition.
