pubmed:abstractText |
A case of an orbital metastasis from a bronchogenic neoplasm is described. The initial clinical presentation was of unilateral facial pain and paraesthesia shortly followed by increasing left-sided external ophthalmoplegia and proptosis and the development of a slight swelling of the left temporal fossa. The diagnosis was established by a biopsy of the temporal mass. The patient died two months after the diagnosis was established. The significance of facial pain and paraesthesia and the literature pertaining to orbital cellulitis and orbital metastases is discussed.
