Overview

In four patients with orbital expansion the authors used computed tomography(CT)to locate the bioptic needle inserted into the orbit.In all these instances itproved possible to collect a sufficient amount of pathological tissue to assess thediagnosis.Serious side-effects were observed only in one case,where the patientdeveloped after insertion of the needle transient bradycardia.CT was also usedto locate the needle for exhausting of blood from a lymphangioma of the orbit.
