BACKGROUND: If extra-axial proptosis is by far the most common symptom of infantile malignant orbital tumors, enophthalmos is a rare and undocumented sign. We report the first case of a pediatric metastatic orbital tumor revealed by enophthalmos alone.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 9-month-old girl was diagnosed with isolated right-sided enophthalmos. An orbital tumor was suspected and computed tomography undertaken showing osteolysis and periosteal reaction of orbital walls, malar bones and zygomatic arches. A Thoracic- abdominal CT scan confirmed a stage-4 neuroblastoma.
CONCLUSION: Enophthalmos can be the sole symptom of an orbital tumor and should lead to immediate imaging assessment. This association is not well known in pediatrics but is relevant to insure the best prognosis.
