Abstract
PURPOSE: To report an unusual clinical presentation for carcinoid tumor metastatic to the orbit. METHODS: Two adult patients with metastatic carcinoid tumor and unilateral orbital masses are described. RESULTS: Both patients sought treatment for acute unilateral orbital inflammation. Neuroimaging revealed orbital metastases adjacent to the inflamed adnexal tissue. Based on each patient's description of similar, prior, untreated episodes, minimal medical management was initiated. Resolution of the inflammatory signs was spontaneous in one case and assisted by pulsed, systemic corticosteroids in the second case. Compressive neuropathic vision loss occurred 11 months later in the second case. CONCLUSIONS: Carcinoid tumor metastatic to the orbit may manifest as recurrent orbital and ocular adnexal inflammation. These signs differ from systemic carcinoid syndrome in that they are unilateral, limited to only the orbital and ocular adnexal soft tissues, and resolve over days. Clinicians must carefully differentiate this manifestation from that of tumor necrosis, adnexal infection, or orbital outlet obstruction. This presentation may result from the spontaneous release of local inflammatory mediators intrinsic to the orbital tumor.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
