Abstract:Schwannomas rarely occur around the orbit and they commonly arise in patients between ages 20 and 70 as unilateral masses with well-defined borders and with a rather slow growth rate. There are only a few case reports with lower and upper eyelid involvement in the English-language literature. In this report, an isolated schwannoma case with eyebrow involvement on the trajectory of the supraorbital nerve in a 24-year-old male patient is presented.
