Radiotherapy for Orbital Pseudotumor: The University of Florida Experience.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate outcomes after definitive radiotherapy for orbital pseudotumor.

METHODS: We reviewed adult patients treated between 1971 and 2012.

RESULTS: 20 patients with 8.0-year median follow-up were analyzed. Symptoms improved in 75% of patients: 40% showed a complete response, 35% partial response, and 20% had stable disease. The disease progressed in 1 and recurred in 8 patients. Local control rates were 63% and 53% at 5 and 10 years, respectively. The most common toxicities were cataracts (10%) and dry eye (10%).

CONCLUSIONS: Radiotherapy for orbital pseudotumor is well-tolerated and results in long-term control in most patients, with local control in over half.
