The proptosis was reduced by approximately 2 mm as a result of the debulking procedure, but a further 5 mm reduction was achieved with the orbital decompression. No serious adverse effects were encountered. Bony orbital decompression may be a useful alternative treatment in patients with severe proptosis secondary to orbital lymphangioma.enHumansLymphangiomaOrbital NeoplasmsExophthalmosPostoperative ComplicationsTomography, X-Ray ComputedMagnetic Resonance ImagingTreatment OutcomeDecompression, SurgicalOphthalmologic Surgical ProceduresAdolescentMaleJournal article002009201010.1097/01.IOP.0000144790.78416.E70002254701000122-s2.0-1004425996337981Selva-Nayagam, D.
