Pathologies Orbital tumors

Our team has extensive neuro-oncological experience, allowing us to achieve optimal functional outcomes in the complex treatment of pediatric orbital tumors. We work with other specialists as a first-class multidisciplinary team and in health centers with the most modern technological resources for diagnosis and treatment.

They are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms that can originate in different areas of the orbit and its neighboring structures. The most common are meningiomas, schwannomas, gliomas, bone tumors, and lymphangiomas.
Clinical manifestations depend on the location of the tumor and the compression of adjacent structures. They are characterized by retroocular pain, altered eye movements, visual impairment, double vision, among others. If you experience these clinical manifestations, contact our team immediately.
Diagnosis is made with complementary studies, such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It is essential to have equipment that allows for specific and highly complex studies (volumetric tomography, CT angiography, MR angiography, spectroscopy, functional MRI, tractography, and neuronavigation, among others). Treatment includes several options: surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and other therapies.
Surgery is the main modality to achieve histological diagnosis (to determine the tumor type and define the best treatment) and reduce tumor volume.
