Summary:

       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 it proved possible to collect a sufficient amount of pathological tissue to assess the diagnosis.Serious side-effects were observed only in one case,where the patient developed after insertion of the needle transient bradycardia.CT was also used to locate the needle for exhausting of blood from a lymphangioma of the orbit.

        Key words: orbit,biopsy,CT,bioptic needle
