ABSTRACT
Paciente de 5 años de edad con diagnóstico de retinoblastoma hereditario bilateral tratada con radioterapia en el ojo izquierdo (OS) y enucleación del ojo derecho (OD). Después de 3 años sin evidencia de progresión presenta una nueva masa tumoral en la órbita derecha, con compromiso del techo, cuyo diagnóstico anatomopatológico tras su exéresis mediante abordaje neuroquirúrgico resultó ser de tumor óseo de células gigantes. Los tumores óseos primarios de la órbita como el tumor de células gigantes son una entidad poco frecuente. Los estudios radiológicos y anatomopatológicos resultan esenciales para establecer el diagnóstico diferencial de las lesiones que asientan en la órbita
A case is presented of a 5 year-old patient with bilateral hereditary retinoblastoma treated with radiotherapy in the right eye and enucleation of the left eye. After three years without evidence of progression, the patient presented with a right orbital mass that compromised the frontal bone. After surgical excision, the histology analysis was consistent with a diagnosis of giant cell tumour. Primary orbital bone neoplasms, such as giant cell tumours, are extremely rare. Both radiological and histopathology studies are essential to establish the differential diagnosis of orbital mass lesions
