Eight cases of focal non-traumatic haemorrhage into the intraconal retrobulbar space in children or young adults have been examined by computed tomography. The lesion is seen as a smoothly rounded, localized mass, which does not extend to fill the intraconal space. Magnetic resonance imaging in two cases did not reveal the expected high signal on T1-weighted images, but in most patients the combination of clinical and radiological features is sufficiently indicative of the diagnosis to allow conservative management.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
