Abstract

Primary Orbital NHL is a rare, malignant neoplasm of the orbit. FNAC is particularly useful for patients with such non-resectable, deep seated retroorbital tumors which are difficult to biopsy and in whom a firm cytologic diagnosis is vital to guide further treatment, such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy. A case of 70 years old female is described in the present article.
