Abstract
Chondroid syringoma is a rare benign neoplasm and its occurrence in orbit is extremely rare. We report a case of 60 year old Indian male who presented with complete loss of vision with gradual progressive protrusion of right eyeball for the past 6 months. The patient also had firm round swelling over temporal aspect of right brow for the past 6 years. Radiological imaging showed a well defined (48x32mm) lobulated mass lesion of heterogenous signal intensity in right retrobulbar area which causes expansion and erosion of lateral orbital wall and proptosis of right globe. Right lateral rectus could not be identified separately from the mass. Total excision of the mass was done with enucleation of the atrophic globe. Histopathological examination revealed it to be Chondroid syringoma. Complete resection of the tumour is the best treatment option to prevent recurrence and close follow-up is recommended as malignant transformation is possible.
