Description The ultrasound characteristics of extraocular muscle (EOM) enlargement can help to differentiate thyroid orbitopathy from other causes such as neoplasm and inflammation1. There are few reports in the literature describing ultrasonographic features in patients who present with neoplastic EOM enlargement1-3. Our objective was to characterize the nature of ocular misalignment and describe the orbital ultrasonographic findings in patients presenting with tumors to the EOMs.
