MR appearance of an orbital leiomyoma

DA Carrier, ME Mawad and JB Kirkpatrick
Department of Radiology, Baylor College of Medicine, Methodist Hospital, Houston, TX 77030.

The authors describe the MR appearance of an intraconal orbital vascular leiomyoma that probably arose from smooth muscle in the wall of a vein. Cavernous hemangiomas, schwannomas, neurofibromas, and other well-encapsulated masses can have a similar appearance.
