Trata-se de caso clínico de paciente que apresentou um quadro de conjuntivite crônica, que após diversas hipóteses diagnósticas, atribui-se a causa à reação de corpo estranho à faixa de introflexão escleral. Foi optado pela remoção da faixa com melhora completa dos sintomas. SUMMARYThis is a clinical case of a patient who presented with chronic conjunctivitis, and the cause was determined to be a foreign body reaction to a scleral introflexion band after several diagnostic hypotheses. It was decided to remove the band, and consequently, the symptoms improved overall.

“…Other ocular cases have also been described on the eyelids and on the cornea, as these tissues on the external ocular surface are more exposed. [1,3] On histopathology it shows lobulated cellular hemangioma in a fibromyxoid matrix. Each of the lobule consists of a larger vessel surrounded by a meshwork of small capillaries stromal edema can be prominently present.…”

“…[1] In our case of eyelid pyogenic granuloma, the inflammatory process can occur due to dynamic eye movements, or an exposure to external contact that would be capable of causing local trauma; such process would eventually culminate in a tumor. [3] The management approach must be individualized for each patient. in most cases simple excision is effective, it can require general anesthesia in the case of a child.…”

The overgrowth of tiny blood vessels in large number is called as pyogenic granuloma. It is harmless and usually occurs on the skin or mucous membrane. Mostly it arises without any reason, but in some cases minor trauma that does not heal properly is the reason. It can occur at any age, but are most common in children and young adults. Here a case report of pyogenic granuloma of the upper eyelid is presented.

“…Histopathologically, they contain granulation tissue with blood vessels arranged in a fan-shaped configuration and have an associated acute and chronic inflammatory cell infiltrate in a loose connective tissue stroma [15,16]. Although often associated with trauma [14-16], surgery [14-17] and chalazions [13-16], there are reports of pyogenic granuloma formation after foreign bodies such as natural or synthetic fibers [16], contact lens [16], scleral buckle [14], and insect wing [14]. We hypothesize that a component of the intravitreal injection procedure such as talc from a disposable glove, cotton fibers from the sterile applicator, or silicone oil derived from the syringe [20-22] could have triggered foreign body reaction at the level of the conjunctiva.…”
