Abstract
Purpose: To report one case of juvenile xanthogranuloma presenting as a unilateral nodule of the eyelid. Case summary: A 4-year-old girl presented with a solitary eyelid nodule. There were no other ophthalmologic problems. Excisional biopsy and simple wound closure were performed. A biopsy showed intense infiltration of histiocytes, lymphocytes, and multinucleated giant cells in the dermis, which was compatible with juvenile xanthograunuloma. Conclusion: Juvenile xanthogranuloma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a solitary eyelid tumor.
