Abstract

This case report details the management of orbital cavernous hemangioma in a middle-aged female. The treatment involved a medial orbitotomy combined with an innovative application of a cryoprobe. This approach underscores the benefits of open orbitotomy, particularly when combined with cryoextraction. This combination provides improved control over bleeding and results in a substantial reduction in surgical time, offering valuable insights in the context of the contemporary trend towards endoscopic surgeries.
