Summary:Primary orbital tumors are common; clinically common are single tumors in orbit; and cavernous hemangioma is the most common. Multiple tumors in the same orbit are rare, which have homology and heterogeneity. Multiple tumors of homology are multiple textures of a tumor while multiple heterogeneous tumors have two or more textures. Various tumor tissues, heterogeneous multiple orbital tumors are sporadic. Our department admitted one patient in October 2015. A 54-year-old male patient had proptosis growing gradually in his right eye beginning ten years ago, with decreased vision for more than one year. The primary diagnosis of the right eye orbital double-source primary tumor was diagnosed by imaging. The pathological examination after the operation was confirmed as cavernous hemangioma and schwannomas.
