Granular cell tumor of the orbit: a case report

E M Singleton et al. Ann Ophthalmol. 1983 Sep.

Abstract

A 42-year-old woman had vertical diplopia secondary to a palpable mass located in the left inferior orbit. At surgery, the mass was adherent to the globe, encapsulated, and seemed to arise from the inferior rectus muscle. Frozen section diagnosis was granular cell tumor. The tumor was removed in toto. No recurrence was apparent six years after surgery.
