Retrobulbar Mass?

Retrobulbar Mass?

Buba: 14 Year old cat with ongoing problems with left eye. Intially treated for ulceration, but today the eye is pushed forward in the orbit and has a firmness on palpation…pupil is normal sized making glaucoma less likely.

I feel like I see a retrobulbar mass on U/S but having not looked at a lot of eyes…(this is my first) I’d appreciate some more seasoned eyes offering an opinion.

Thanks,

Sam

Hi Sam, you may want to look

Hi Sam, you may want to look at this case from the Basic Case Search of a retrobulbar mass in a feline: https://sonopath.com/members/case-studies/cases/retrobulbar-mass-7-year-old-mn-dsh-cat

Here is another example but this case is a Cocker Spaniel: https://sonopath.com/members/case-studies/cases/retrobulbar-carcinoma-or-adenocarcinoma-diagnosed-fna-12-year-old-mn-cocker

sorry for the delay been

sorry for the delay been traveling. definitive retrobulbar mass echotexture suggests carcinoma and seems to be expanding caudally with finger projections which isnt good for sx. Needs CT ideally to see the extent but its not good. SCC would be my guess
