Preferred Label : orbital pseudotumor;
MeSH definition : A nonspecific tumor-like inflammatory lesion in the ORBIT of the eye. It is usually
composed of mature LYMPHOCYTES; PLASMA CELLS; MACROPHAGES; LEUKOCYTES with varying
degrees of FIBROSIS. Orbital pseudotumors are often associated with inflammation of
the extraocular muscles (ORBITAL MYOSITIS) or inflammation of the lacrimal glands
(DACRYOADENITIS).;
