Abstract

A series of multicentric cases is reported, of which five institutions participated. The sample was of 17 patients, of which 11 belonged to our Hospital, the Dr. J. M. Cullen Hospital. All consulted for orbital and / or periorbital commitment. The commitment in men was 23.4% and 76.6% in women. The average age in years was 45.4 (17-69 years). Among the diagnoses found, five cases were IgG4-Related Disease, two cases of Erdheim Chester Disease, two Xantogranuloma, two xanthelasmas, a case of breast cancer metastases, a case of thyroid orbitopathy, a case of Amyloidosis with multiple myeloma, and three without diagnosis. Differential diagnoses found are reviewed.
