Abstract

A 33-year-old male presented with an extremely rare case of intraorbital fat necrosis. A magnetic resonance imaging scan showed a 10-mm mass lesion within the right lateral rectal muscle. Surgical removal was performed. Histological analysis showed diffuse adipose cells surrounded by macrophage cells. Fat necrosis was diagnosed.
