Abstract

Summary:
Idiopathic orbital
myositis is a disease with unknown etiology, but it is thought to be an
autoimmune disease, which is rarely seen among children. In most cases,
corticosteroids provide a rapid and dramatic improvement. In this case report,
we present an 11-year-old girl who admitted to our clinic with headache and
orbital pain. Her neurologic examination revealed restriction of the outside
glance on the right eye and restriction of the down glance on the left eye.
Finally, she was diagnosed as idiopathic orbital myositis and improved with non-steroidal
anti-inflammatory treatment.
