  • Title: Intracranial extension of an idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor.
    Author: Bencherif B, Zouaoui A, Chedid G, Kujas M, Van Effenterre R, Marsault C.
    Journal: AJNR Am J Neuroradiol; 1993; 14(1):181-4. PubMed ID: 8427085.
    Abstract:
    Idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor (IOIP) with endocranial extension is very unusual. The authors used CT and MR to diagnose IOIP and demonstrate the presence of intracranial extension of orbital and lacrimal gland lesions. While providing additional evidence of IOIP having intracranial extension, this case report emphasizes the need to include IOIP as a possible differential diagnosis when radiologic explorations reveal lesions extending from the orbit to intracranial structures.
