Description Orbital inflammatory disease comprises a spectrum of entities that may affect the various structures within the orbit. The etiology of the inflammation is often idiopathic, although some progress has been made in recent years to elucidate specific causes. This study documents the largest series to date of patients presenting with orbital inflammation in whom it was determined that recent systemic bisphosphonate treatment was the likely causitive factor.
