Orbital cavernous hemangioma

Discussion:

Cavernous venous malformations of the orbit (a.k.a. cavernous hemangiomas)  are the most common vascular lesion of the orbit in adults.

It is important to note that according to newer nomenclature (ISSVA classification of vascular anomalies) these lesions are merely known as slow flow venous malformations. Having said that, it is probably helpful in reports to include the word 'cavernous' as this term is ubiquitous in the literature and most familiar to many clinicians.
