Two patients with primary fibrosarcoma of the orbit are described. The literature is reviewed and the rarity of this entity in the orbit, as well as the very low‐grade malignant course of fibrosarcoma, is emphasized. One of the 2‐patients developed papilledema 3 years after the diagnosis of optic atrophy had been made.
