Abstract
|
|
|
|
Metastases to the orbit usually affect the intraorbital fat and bone than the extraocular muscles. Metastasis to the extracoular muscles commonly occurs unilaterally, and diffuse enlargement of the bilateral extraocular muscles due to metastasis is extremely rare. In this report, we will describe a case of diffuse metastasis to the bilateral extraocular muscles from nasal rhabdomyosarcoma masquerading as thyroid associated orbitopathy. We will also discuss about the MR imaging findings helpful for differential diagnosis from thyroid associated orbitopathy.
