Management of an expansile orbital mass: Plexiform neurofibroma decompression by orbitozygomatic approach.
Laryngoscope 2015 November
Neurofibromatosis types 1 (NF-1) and 2 are significant entities to otolaryngologists because they frequently involve head and neck skin, brain, skull base, orbits, and surrounding neural and vascular structures. We present the case of a 52-year-old male with progressive, marked unilateral proptosis due to a multilobulated orbital mass, secondary to biopsy-proven plexiform neurofibroma (PN). Acute worsening of proptosis leading to corneal abrasion, diplopia, and pain required debulking surgery, for which an orbitozygomatic approach was utilized. Genetic testing for NF-1 revealed no mutation. This rare case of NF-negative orbital PN and multidisciplinary treatment considerations for expansile orbital tumors are discussed.
