A 61-year-old woman presented with a 2-month history of non-painful left eye proptosis. Imaging studies showed a superotemporal mass in the left orbit with intracranial extension. Surgical excision of the orbitocranial mass was performed and histopathologic examination revealed metastatic papillary thyroid carcinoma. She subsequently underwent total thyroidectomy. Orbital metastasis from thyroid carcinoma is rare and can be the initial manifestation of occult disease in 63% of cases.
