Abstract
A spectrum of tumors and pseudotumors can involve the orbit of children. The most common causes of orbital tumors in the pediatric age are benign processes like cysts (dermoid, teratoma), vascular lesions (hemangiomas, lymphangiomas), inflammatory conditions (orbital pseudotumor, cellulitis) and more rarel,malignant tumors. We report the case of a child with ocular lymphangioma that consulted for ocular trauma and proptosis.
