“…There were 39 males and 45 females. [ 1 2 5 7 8 9 ] Our series showed a male: female ratio of 4:1, contrary to that reported in a majority of the studies. The most common signs were reduced visual acuity, an abaxial proptosis, and restricted extraocular movements.…”

“…The exact tissue of origin of ASPS is not clear, however, a few studies suggest that the tumor arises from the extraocular muscles, pointing toward a myogenic origin. [ 5 9 12 ] In our series, the recti muscles were found to be involved in two patients. The histopathology is characterized by a pseudo-alveolar pattern consisting of round to polygonal tumor cells having distinct borders and epithelioid appearance separated by delicate fibrovascular septae.…”

“…Exenteration, a radical surgery that at times is unavoidable was done for 20 (27%) out of the 74 cases reported. [ 1 2 5 7 8 9 ] Embolization before exenteration was done for one patient owing to significant bleeding encountered during an incisional biopsy by Kim et al . [ 15 ] In our series, all three patients who underwent embolization had successful removal of the entire tumor with very minimal intraoperative bleeding.…”

Purpose: To describe the clinic-radiological, pathological profile, and management outcomes of primary alveolar soft-part sarcoma (ASPS) of the orbit. Methods: A retrospective analysis of all histopathologically proven cases of orbital ASPS that presented between May 2016 and September 2019 was done. Data collected included demographics, clinical features, imaging characteristics, metastatic workup, management, and follow-up. Results: Five patients, of which four were males, presented to us during the study period. The mean age of presentation was 12.6 years (range 3–22 years). The most common presenting features were abaxial proptosis ( n = 4) and diminished vision ( n = 4). Imaging showed a well-defined orbital mass in all patients with internal flow voids in three. Preoperative percutaneous embolization with cyanoacrylate glue was done in these three patients owing to high vascularity. Four patients underwent complete tumor excision. One patient underwent exenteration. Histopathology showed polygonal tumor cells arranged in a pseudo-alveolar pattern and Periodic Acid-Schiff (PAS) positive crystals in the cytoplasm in all patients. One patient had systemic metastasis at presentation and developed a local recurrence after 3 months. No recurrence or metastasis was noted in the remaining four patients at a mean final follow-up of 11.2 months (range 5–15 months). Conclusion: ASPS is a rare orbital neoplasm that poses a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Imaging might show a soft-tissue tumor with high vascularity. Multidisciplinary management with interventional radiologists for preoperative embolization of vascular lesions helps minimize intraoperative bleeding and aids in complete tumor resection. A localized orbital disease carries a better prognosis.
