Publication Congenital Microphthalmia with Orbital Cyst: A Case Series(Nepal Medical Association, 2019) Hamal, Diwa; Kafle, Prerna Arjyal; Poudyal, Prija; Saiju, Rohit; KC, Hony; kafle, SantoshAbstract Microphthalmos results from incomplete invagination of the optic vesicle or closure of the embryonic fissure. We present three patients with unilateral congenital microphthalmia with cyst. None of them had vision in the affected eye since birth, with gradually increasing mass encroaching towards lower fornix and lower eyelid ectropion. On examination and investigations, patients had large orbital cyst with microphthalmia pushing the eyeball superiorly and posteriorly in affected orbit. Microphthalmic globe with cyst was surgically excised and histopathologically studied. Orbital cavity was big enough to occupy the conformer and the prosthetic eye after 6 weeks. Diagnosis was confirmed by large communicating orbital cyst with microphthalmia without systemic association in all the patients. None of the mothers of patients had (antenatal care) ANC check up. All the parents had consanguineous marriage. ANC check up with ultrasound at 14-16 weeks of pregnancy is important for genetic counselling.

Imaging shows multiple well-defined masses, suggestive of cavernous haemangioma, in orbit and cranium with adjoining bones being thickened with cystic spaces. Histopathology proved the diagnosis. Cavernous haemangioma usually presents as a solitary intraconal and sometimes extraconal mass with vision usually preserved unless it extends to the apical portion. Here we report a rare case of multiple simultaneous locations of cavernous haemangiomas in orbit and cranium with significant diminution of vision.
