Abstract
[Objective:] To analyze the clinical pathologic characteristics of pigment nevus of lacrimal caruncle complicated with squamous cell papilloma. [Methods:] This is retrospective case series study including ten patients diagnosed as pigment nevus of lacrimal caruncle complicated with squamous cell papilloma who underwent surgical treatment at Tianjin Eye Hospital from January 2002 to June 2020. The clinical and histological data were abstained for statistical analysis. [Results:] Among the included 10 patients 5 (50%) were males. The mean age was 50.20±19.57 years (ranged, 21 to 72 years). Five cases involved with the right eye and the other 5 cases involved with the left eye. In term of subtype of nevus, 7 cases (70%) were compound nevus and the left 3 cases (30%) were intradermal nevus. The conjunctival epithelial cysts were found in 7 cases of compound nevus and 2 cases of intradermal nevus. Regarding the clinical appearance of papilloma, 7 cases were pedunculated and 3 cases were sessile. There were 9 papilloma eyes containing conjunctival goblet cells, 1 shows hyperkeratosis, 3 with chronic inflammation, 2 showed mild atypia. There was no obvious elastosis in any of the tumors. [Conclusion:] The pigment nevus of lacrimal caruncle complicated with squamous cell papilloma mainly localized were not common. They were easily misdiagnosed as melanoma and the diagnosis depended on histopathological examination.
