Abstract

A 31-year-old had a five-year history of painless progressive swelling of her right upper eyelid. A mass was removed from the superonasal aspect of the right orbit. The orbital mass was composed of a collagenous stroma with capillary channels and irregular giant cells. The findings were characteristic of multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma. Multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of circumscribed orbital tumors.
