| Summary: |
Purpose: Aim of the
study was to determine the types and frequency of
orbital tumors and to assess the method of treatment
relevant to patient, orbital and tumor data.
Material and methods: Current classification of
orbital tumors is presented. The retrospective analysis
of 127 patients with orbital tumor treated in the
Ophthalmology Clinic in Gdańsk in years 1991-2002 was
carried out. The diagnosis was made with orbital biopsy
in available cases, the clinical findings, imaging
studies and histopatological examination.
Results: There were 91 cases of primary tumors,
33 of secondary lesions and 3 metastatic neoplasms. The
surgical treatment was involved in 87 cases. 14 of them
required the synergic action with radiotherapy and 4
with chemotherapy.
Conclusions: The age of the studied group is an
important factor affecting relative incidence of orbital
tumors. With increasing age, malignant orbital tumors
become more common. Orbital lesion may manifest the
systemic neoplastic disease. |
