Abstract

Sebaceous adenoma of the conjunctiva is a very rare lesion of uncertain origin. It is usually associated with Muir-Torre syndrome in which neoplasms are also found in other parts of the body. We present the case of a 71-year-old man without a previous or family history of neoplasia, who presented with severe inflammation and an infection in his right eye associated with a tumor of the conjunctiva near the caruncle. The lesion was excised and histopathology revealed a sebaceous adenoma. Microsatellite instability was not observed immunohistochemically. He remains alive and well.
