Intracranial extension of orbital pseudotumour

Clin Radiol. 1992 Jan;45(1):23-6. doi: 10.1016/s0009-9260(05)81462-x.

Abstract

Radiologically demonstrable intracranial extension of orbital pseudotumour is rare, and only four cases appear to have been reported previously in the literature. A review of the computed tomographic (CT) images of 90 biopsy proven cases of orbital pseudotumour seen over a 10 year period revealed eight cases with intracranial meningeal spread.
