“…Occasionally, they may be associated with ocular coloboma, Goldenhar syndrome or organoid nevus syndrome. 4 In the present case, a healthy 20-year-oldgirl presented with slowly growing lower bulbar conjunctival mass in right eye. The histopathology of excised tissue was consistent with conjunctival choristoma with predominant mesodermal elements.…”

“…Due to complex choristomas generally regarded as benign and non-progressive lesions, the indications of treatment are mainly for cosmetic purpose or for amblyopia prevention [10]. However, slow growth or even rapid progression has been reported, often associated with linear nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn [11, 12]. Early surgical intervention should be considered in these cases.…”

BackgroundEpibulbar complex choristoma, a rare congenital epibulbar tumor, has many diverse forms. Reviewing the literature, it can present clinically as either a circumferential or isolated epibulbar mass, limbal tumor, lateral canthal mass, aggregate of ectopic cilia in the upper eyelid, eyelid mass mimicking chalazion, or lacrimal caruncle mass. The management depends on the extent of involvement, the risk of amblyopia, and cosmetic concerns. Here, we report an atypical presentation of epibulbar complex choristoma with simultaneous eyelid involvement.Case presentationA 1-month-old full-term boy was brought to our clinic with congenital epibulbar mass of the right eye with simultaneous eyelid involvement. Dilated fundus examination was unremarkable. Survey for linear nevus sebaceous Jadassohn was negative. Due to concerns of possible amblyopia and cosmetics, lamellar keratectomy, sclerotomy, and conjunctivoplasty were performed to remove the epibulbar lesion. The eyelid defect was reconstructed with 6–0 Vicryl sutures. Histopathological examination reported complex choristoma. Upon three-year follow-up, low astigmatism and favorable cosmetics results were achieved.ConclusionsCongenital complex choristoma can present clinically as an epibulbar mass with eyelid involvement. The management depends on the extent of involvement, the risk of amblyopia, and cosmetic concerns. The method of eyelid reconstruction should be tailored according to the residual eyelid defect.

Tumors of the Ocular Surface clinically manifest with a very wide spectrum and include several forms of epithelial, stromal, caruncular, and secondary tumors. As a group, these tumors are seen commonly in the clinical practice of a comprehensive ophthalmologist, cornea specialist, and an ocular oncologist. This review is aimed to discuss the common tumors of the ocular surface and emphasize on their clinical diagnosis and appropriate management.
