Abstract
In childhood, benign tumors are uncommon causes of exophtalmos. We report a case of intraorbital lipofibroma in an 11-year-old girl who presented with painless, progressive proptosis of the right eye over the preceding 6 months. Ultrasound had shown an extraconal intraorbital mass. Complete excision and pathologic examination were performed, revealing a lipofibroma with no signs of malignancy This case report is notable due to the rarity of the condition.
