Abstract
Purpose:
To describe a case of trichoblsatoma on the eyelid.
Case Report:
A 45-year-old woman presented with a recurring mass on her upper right eyelid. Histopathological examination revealed well-circumscribed tissue composed of an aggregation of basaloid cells. Immunohistochemistry showed positive staining for CD34 and CD10. The patient underwent total excision of the recurrent mass.
Conclusion:
Although rare, trichoblastoma should be considered in differential diagnosis of skin masses of the eyelids.
