Peripapillary staphyloma (PPS) is a non-hereditary congenital optic disc (OD) anomaly. Herein, we aimed to describe a case of PPS and\uddiscuss the clinical, orbital magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography (USG) findings. A one-year-old healthy girl was\udreferred to our hospital for absence of fixation in her left eye. In addition to ophthalmological examinations, MRI and ocular USG were\udalso performed. Sciascopic examination revealed -2.0 diopters in her right and -8.0 diopters in her left eye. Slit-lamp examination showed\udnormal findings in both eyes. At fundus examination, peripapillary staphyloma was detected in the left eye, while the right eye showed\udnormal findings. MRI and USG also supported the diagnosis. As a result, MRI and USG findings can support the clinical observations in\udthe diagnosis of PPS, which should be kept in mind especially in the differential diagnosis of unilateral absence of fixation in children.\ud(Turk J Oph thal mol 2012; 42: 397-
