Nune Eye Hospital, Seoul, South Korea.
Article Synopsis
- This study focused on understanding the differences between epidermoid cysts (EC) and dermoid cysts (DC) in the orbit, examining their radiologic and histopathologic characteristics through the review of 69 patient cases.
- The results showed that DC were more prevalent (85.5%) than EC (14.5%) and highlighted varying radiodensities and bony changes associated with each type of cyst on CT scans.
- The findings suggest that the characteristics observed in imaging could help differentiate between EC and DC before surgical intervention, based on radiodensity and signs of bony remodeling.

Article Synopsis
- Orbital tumors are various diseases affecting the eye area, and early detection is crucial for effective treatment, especially for malignant cases.
- Neuroradiological imaging, particularly MRI, is key for diagnosing these tumors, with adults often experiencing lymphoproliferative diseases and children more frequently dealing with dermoid cysts and optic gliomas.
- Specific tumors like optic glioma, which is a type of pilocytic astrocytoma, and retinoblastoma, an aggressive childhood tumor, have distinct characteristics that help doctors narrow down their diagnoses based on patient age, tumor location, and imaging results.
Article Synopsis

The treatment of orbital masses often requires an interdisciplinary approach. Ophthalmological surgical approaches include the anterior transcutaneous approach for removal of dermoids or taking biopsies. Anterior transconjunctival orbitotomy is suitable for masses of the inferior orbit or the intraconal compartment, but is inappropriate for masses of the orbital apex.

Article Synopsis
- Brain tumors and orbital tumors are diverse in type, with varying characteristics and treatment approaches, where dermoid cysts and cavernous hemangiomas are common benign types and non-Hodgkin lymphoma is the leading malignant tumor.
- Clinical symptoms of orbital lesions can overlap, making accurate diagnosis essential, and imaging studies play a crucial role in differentiating between types and planning treatment.
- Surgical intervention is the preferred treatment for most orbital lesions, but depending on the tumor's nature and extent, chemotherapy and radiotherapy may also be necessary in some cases.
