A patient underwent hemicoronal incision and a lateral orbitotomy approach, followed by a biopsy. (a) Clinical picture of a 56-year-old patient with a history of right orbital proptosis for 2 months with no visual impairment. (b) Axial magnetic resonance imaging scan showing tumor lesion of the intraconal/extraconal compartment of the right orbit. As a diagnostic procedure, a surgical biopsy was performed using a hemicoronal approach: (c) the lateral orbital rim was exposed via a hemicoronal approach; (d) following temporary osteotomy of the lateral orbital rim, the tumor was exposed and a biopsy was taken; and (e) correct anatomic reposition of the right lateral orbital rim and fixation using a 1.3 mm titanium plate.
