intraorbitális

Intraorbitális refers to anything located within the orbit, which is the bony cavity in the skull that houses the eyeball and its associated structures. This includes the eyeball itself, the optic nerve, extraocular muscles responsible for eye movement, the lacrimal gland which produces tears, blood vessels, fat, and connective tissues. Conditions affecting the intraorbitális space can range from benign growths to malignant tumors, infections, inflammatory diseases, and trauma. Symptoms of intraorbitális issues can include vision changes, double vision, eye pain, swelling, or a protruding eye (proptosis). Diagnosis typically involves a combination of physical examination, imaging techniques such as CT or MRI scans, and sometimes biopsy. Treatment depends heavily on the specific cause and can involve medication, surgery, or radiation therapy. Understanding the anatomy and potential pathologies of the intraorbitális space is crucial for ophthalmologists and other medical professionals dealing with conditions affecting the eye and its surrounding structures.
