A 42-year-old non-menopausal, non-pregnant woman presented with an incidentally noted right orbital apex lesion producing mild compressive optic neuropathy. Imaging revealed an apical, intraconal, inhomogenously enhancing mass consistent with a cavernous venous malformation displacing the optic nerve. The patient was monitored over a 15-year period with serial orbital imaging and clinical examinations and ultimately demonstrated significant regression in the size of the lesion, accompanied by the complete resolution of optic neuropathy. She was non-menopausal when the regression was noted and remained non-pregnant throughout the follow-up period.
