Epidemiology and Classification of Cystic Benign Orbital Tumors: A Review Article

Benign orbital tumor is known to be with a broad variation in the clinical features and findings. Tumors in this small cavity could quickly result in crucial symptoms in vision, even though complete loss of vision. These tumors may be infectious, inflammatory or neoplastic. Management and follow up may differ based on the tumor type, site, and spread into other systems. Because of what is known that the orbital cavity constitutes a small space, so that tiny projections like that observed with tumors and infection could result in huge physiologic disorders in near structures leading to anatomical and weak or total loss of vision. Deep awareness about orbit structure and physiology is needed to be aware about the complications of different orbital disorders and surgical therapy. Orbital cystic tumors comprise a collection of masses with various sings, histopathology and pathogenesis. This article cast a light on the epidemiology and classification of “cystic benign orbital tumors”.
