Abstract

Sebaceous epithelioma which developed on the conjunctiva is a very rare benign skin and adnexal tumor. No case has been reported in the Republic of Korea. We report a case of sebaceous epithelioma on the lower palpebral conjunctiva. METHODS: A 69 year old man had visited with asymptomatic mass on lower palpebral conjunctiva. The mass was resected and biopsied for histological examination. RESULTS: Sebaceous epithelioma was diagnosed by histological examination.
