This case was previously reported in 1973 at the 46th annual general scientific meeting of this College. Following a suggestion made at the meeting the patient was referred for radiotherapy, with a result so satisfactory as to call for a restatement of the case. Summary case of gross hHæmangiomatous malformation of the orbit was treated and observed for 20 years. The condition had progressed to the point where further surgical attack was impossible. Radiotherapy was applied with a resultant remarkable cure.
