Abstract

Relatam-se dois casos clínicos de prolapso de gordura orbitária, sendo um associado à oftalmopatia de Graves. Os pacientes apresentavam em comum exame clínico com elevação na região temporal da órbita direita e aumento da gordura intraorbitária na tomografia computadorizada de órbitas. No caso da paciente com oftalmopatia de Graves observou-se também aumento do volume da musculatura orbital no exame de imagem. O trabalho busca incluir a oftalmopatia de Graves, quando nesta ocorre aumento da gordura orbital como diagnóstico diferencial do prolapso de gordura orbitária.<br>We report two cases of orbital fat prolapse. One associated with Graves' ophthalmopathy. Both patients presented similar clinical exams and an increase in intraorbital fat as seen in computerized orbital tomography. The patient with Graves' ophthalmopathy also presented an increased volume in orbital muscles in the tomography. This work seeks to include Graves' ophthalmopathy as differential diagnosys for Orbital fat prolapse.
