Suspected lacrimal mucocele in a newborn CT: homogenously hypodense mass Rhabdomyosarcoma patient with epiphora and swelling below the left medial canthus Our case #1 Suspected chalazion or lymphangioma in CT: solid mass in the medial-inferior part of the orbit, Rhabdomyosarcoma a patient with left inferior eyelid swelling homogeneous and hyperdense after contrast enhancement Our case #2 Suspected lymphangioma in a patient with CT: well-defined lesion with clear margins in the medial Rhabdomyosarcoma left eye exophthalmus segment of the left orbit, with several chambers, which were more evident after contrast enhancement MRI: irregular isointense tissue with an isointense peripheral rim and some central areas with a hyperintense signal Our case #3 Suspected lymphangioma in a patient with CT: lobular non-encapsulated mass, featuring the same Rhabdomyosarcoma superior left eyelid edema density as the extra-ocular muscles, well-defined against the surrounding soft tissues, with diffuse contrast enhancement Non -co mmerc ial us e o nly [page 6]	cache/eyereports-37.pdf	txt/eyereports-37.txt
