MENDOZA SANTIESTEBAN, Enrique; COGOLLO VARGAS, Pedro A; MENDOZA SANTIESTEBAN, Carlos E e SANTIESTEBAN FREIXAS, Rosaralis. Clinic of the orbital injuries and its surgical procedure. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2005, vol.18, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3070.
The causistics of 52 patients with orbital tumors surgically treated at the Institute of Neurology and Neurosurgery of Cuba for 10 years, with the direct participation of the author in the cases attended during the last 4 years, is analyzed. The diagnostic and therapeutic elements of these occupying processes were studied in detail. The most common tumors were the meningiomas, the glyomas and the hemangiomas. The clinical and neuroophthalmological study oriented towards the topographic diagnosis in most of the cases and suggested, in some of them, the nature of the injury. The computerized axial tomography was the most used complementary study method, and it also provided the greatest number of data of interest. The types of lesions found in these patients are discussed and the main therapeutic modalities used are described, specially the routes of surgical approach to the orbit (56 operations), depending on the location or other characteristics of the injury
