Abstract
Orbital cystic lymphangioma is a rare benign vascular malformation that typically presents in childhood. It may manifest as progressive exophthalmos and can be complicated by hemorrhage. We report the case of a 7-year-old girl presenting with progressive left-sided exophthalmos associated with divergent strabismus. Imaging suggested a cystic intraorbital lesion, and the diagnosis of cystic lymphangioma was confirmed by histopathological examination following complete surgical excision. The postoperative course was favorable, with no recurrence at 6 months.
