Abstract

A 9-year-old child presented with a palpable swelling under the right lower lid for 3 years. On examination, the swelling was nontender, well circumscribed, and cystic on palpation. A computed tomography scan showed a well circumscribed, hyperdense lesion in the inferior orbit with no anatomic connection with the paranasal sinuses. Transcutaneous orbitotomy was performed, and the lesion was excised in toto. Histopathological examination was suggestive of a mucocele.
