Abstract
-
A 61-year-old korean male had noticed a growth on his left eye for the last 3 monthes. This had begun at the nasal limbus of his cornea and had spread over the surface of the cornea. The patient had undergone surgery for the removal of a "tumor on his stomach", about 3 years before, but, no further information concerning this was obtainable. The elevated mass was removed easily by simple excision, and the diagnosis was confirmed histopathologically as "conjunctival carcinoma in situ".
