  • Title: Epibulbar rhabdomyosarcoma without proptosis.
    Author: Joffe L, Shields JA, Pearah JD.
    Journal: J Pediatr Ophthalmol; 1977; 14(6):364-7. PubMed ID: 604443.
    Abstract:
    Orbital rhabdomyosarcoma presenting as a localized, epibulbar mass is unusual, but common enough for the clinician to be aware of it. Although there has been a recent trend toward simple biopsy followed by irradiation and chemotherapy, cases presenting in this manner may sometimes be managed by total excision with preservation of the globe, follwed by irradiation and chemotherapy. A case of such an epibulbar rhabdomyosarcoma is presented as an illustrative example.
