Orbital impairment in the debut of oncohematological diseases in children

Abstract

Tumor lesion of the orbit is found in the clinic of various oncohematological diseases in children. Untimely referral of such patients to an oncologist delays the timing of the necessary treatment, thereby worsening the prognosis of the disease. The literature review presents the features of clinical manifestations of orbital pathology in children at the onset of acute myeloid leukemia, myeloid sarcoma, lymphoma, Langerhans cell and non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. The article presents our own observations and identifies factors that negatively affect the timely diagnosis of oncohematological diseases in this category of patients.
