Abstract

Two patients with orbital neurofibromatosis associated with enophthalmos are presented. Assessment using 3D-CT scan shows an increase in the size of the orbital cavity and an enlargement of the inferior orbital fissure, which allows orbital fat to prolapse into the infratemporal fossa, causing enophthalmos.
