Conjunctival Perivascular Epithelioid Cell Neoplasm With RBM10-TFE3 Fusion Presenting as Recurrent Subconjunctival Hemorrhage

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2022
Subconjunctival hemorrhages commonly present to eye care professionals and are frequently regarded as benign self-limited conditions. In selected cases, subconjunctival hemorrhages can be a harbinger of more severe disease. Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors, or PEComas, are rare mesenchymal neoplasms believed to originate from perivascular myoid ...

Eyelid and Conjunctival Neoplasms

2011
The spectrum of neoplasms that can affect the eyelids and conjunctiva is vast. In this chapter, we review the epidemiology, clinical features, pathology, and management of these lesions. Basal cell carcinoma is the most common eyelid malignancy. Excision is the mainstay of treatment for this tumor that rarely metastasizes.

Management of Conjunctival Neoplasms

2010
Melanocytic neoplasms of the conjunctiva include nevus, primary acquired melanosis (PAM) without atypia, PAM with atypia, and conjunctival melanoma. The most common nonmelanocytic tumors of the conjunctiva are squamous cell neoplasms. Surgical excision is the cornerstone of therapy for conjunctival tumors. Proper specimen handling is critical to ensure

CONJUNCTIVAL-CORNEAL INTRAEPITHELIAL NEOPLASM IN AN ASIAN ELEPHANT (ELEPHAS MAXIMUS)

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2006
An adult female Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) presented with an enlarging nasal limbal mass of the left eye. The mass was excised and the surgical bed treated with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy.
