Abstract: 

Cavernous Hemangioma (also known as cavernous malformation), although not true neoplasm, are the most common benign adult orbital tumor. MR imaging is particularly valuable for evaluation of orbital neoplasms, as it provides critical anatomic information about ocular structures involved, perineural spread, and intracranial extension. Cavernous Hemangioma typically appear as a well-circumscribed, ovoid intraconal mass on cross-sectional images. We report a 30 years old female patient, presenting with swelling in the superio-medial aspect of left orbit since 6 years, diagnosed to have cavernous hemangioma. Clinical symptoms, Imaging features & Management of Cavernous Hemangioma are herewith discussed.
