Abstract

|
Purpose: Desmoplastic trichilemmoma is a rare variant of trichilemmoma first described in 1990. Desmoplastic trichilemmoma on the eyelid has not been previously reported in Korea. We report our experience with a case of desmoplastic trichilemmoma of the eyelid.
Case summary: A 72-year-old male patient presented with a round mass on the upper eyelid, which was noticed 1 year prior and caused irritation and itching. Excisional biopsy of the mass was performed. Histopathological examination revealed findings suggestive of a desmoplastic trichilemmoma. There was no local recurrence during the 2-year follow-up.
Conclusions: Desmoplastic trichilemmoma should be considered when determining the type of eyelid mass.
