Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Conference Paper Description
We report the case of a 52-year-old man who presented with a 10-day history of right eye and eyelid inflammation and intermittent diplopia following blunt trauma to the right eyebrow. The CT and MRI scans revealed an extraconal soft tissue mass on the orbital floor with maxillary and ethmoid sinus wall destruction, which on orbital biopsy was proven to be an Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma. The patient had a central retinal vein occlusion due to mass effect that resulted in total visual loss at 2 months. He was referred to oncologists who treated him according to the paediatric RMS protocol and is still in remission at 2-year follow-up. Rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare tumour in adults which requires multi-disciplinary management. This highlights the necessity of considering rhabdomyosarcoma in the differential diagnosis of orbital tumours in any age group. © Informa Healthcare USA, Inc.
