Abstract
The cryoprobe device is commonly used by orbital surgeons for the extraction of intraorbital lesions. Cryoprobes provide a safe mechanism to manipulate fluid-filled tumors. Such lesions can present in locations in which intraoperative neurosurgical assistance is essential. The authors describe a technique whereby removal of an orbital hemangioma was facilitated by the aid of an endoscopic, transnasal cryoprobe while standard microsurgical dissection was performed concurrently via a transconjunctival approach.
