Abstract

A 25-year-old-male patient had one keratinized tumor on the inferior right eyelid, first observed 5 months before. Its size had been increasing for the last three weeks. The visual function was normal. Clinical examination disclosed a papillomatous lesion on the cutaneous middle part of the eyelid. A surgical excision was performed under local anesthesia. The histopathological study found a papillomatous epidermal proliferation with both structural and cytological atypias, concluding with a precancerous keratosis of the eyelid.
