Various space occupying lesions can arise in the orbit, ranging from developmental anomalies to malignancies, and many of the diseases occurring in children are different from the pathologies in the adult population. As the clinical presentation is frequently nonspecific, radiologic evaluation is essential for lesion detection and characterization as well as patient management. While orbital masses may in some cases involve multiple compartments, a simple compartmental approach is the key for the diagnosis on imaging studies, and MRI is the modality of choice. This pictorial review presents the most common and characteristic non-emergent pediatric orbital lesions, stressing their MRI and CT appearances, including specific differentiating features. The lesions are subdivided into 4 compartments: intraocular, intraconal, extraconal, and orbital walls. Retinoblastoma, Coats disease and persistent fetal vasculature; optic pathway glioma and lymphovascular malformations; rhabdomyosarcoma, infantile hemangioma, neurofibroma and lymphoma; neuroblastoma, leukemia/myeloid sarcoma, Langerhans cell histiocytosis and dermoid are reviewed in their respective compartments.

Until now, ultrasound examination of the fetal eyes has not played an important role in prenatal diagnosis. National and international guidelines are generally confined to documentation of the presence of the orbits and the lenses. However, in recent years, with the advent of high-resolution ultrasound technology and increasing knowledge of prenatal medicine and genetics, careful examination of the fetal eye has enabled the detection of many ocular malformations before birth. This article provides an overview of the anatomy related to the development of the fetal eye and covers the following conditions: hypertelorism, hypotelorism, exophthalmos, microphthalmos, coloboma, cataract, persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous, retinal detachment, dacryocystocele, and septooptic dysplasia, etc. It is designed to illustrate the spectrum of ocular malformations and their appearance on prenatal ultrasound and to discuss their clinical impact and association with various syndromes.
