When considering enhancing periorbital masses, the initial differential diagnosis includes both inflammatory and neoplastic diseases. The clinical presentation is usually nonspecific, and the final diagnosis often takes a long time to establish. We presented this case so that the orbital imaging findings might be helpful in leading to this uncommon diagnosis.", }
