Abstract
Case report

A 13-year-old boy presented with right eye proptosis and lateral dystopia. A soft non-pulsatile mass was found in the superomedial orbital region. An excisional biopsy was performed, for which the histopathology reported an epithelioid haemangioendothelioma.

Discussion

Haemangioendothelioma is a borderline vascular lesion within the spectrum of clinically benign and malignant tumors. These can arise from soft tissue or bone. There are few reports of these tumors located in the orbit.
