What is Orbital pseudotumor?

The orbit is a bony, pyramid-shaped cavity in the skull. It contains and protects the eyeball and related structures. Orbital pseudotumor is a swelling of the orbital tissues behind the eye, but unlike cancerous tumors, it cannot invade other tissues or spread elsewhere.

Alternative Names:

Idiopathic orbital inflammatory syndrome (IOIS)
