Abstract
Intramuscular cavernous venous malformations affecting extraocular muscles are extremely uncommon. Due to their location, complete resection could be difficult. A clinical case is presented of an inferior rectus muscle orbital cavernous malformation treated with fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy after post-surgical excision recurrence. The malformation responded to radiotherapy with a reduction in size and symptoms. Fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy is an alternative and effective treatment for cavernous venous malformations that are surgically challenging due to their radiotherapy sensitivity.
