Abstract

Orbital pseudotumor, is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterised by orbital inflammation and is a rare clinical entity and a diagnosis of exclusion. We report two cases with typical clinical manifestation and magnetic resonance images, but unresponsive to corticosteroid treatment which turned out to be caused by herpes simplex virus type I. Viral etiology must be carefully evaluated, especially in steroid unresponsive recurrent cases presumed to be pseudotumor orbita.
