Abstract

Space occupying masses of the orbit especially anterior localized ones could lead to mechanical ptosis. Conjunctival epithelial cysts are the rare lesions lined by classical conjunctival epithelium which could be primary or secondary to trauma or surgery. Here we report a case of 20 years old patient presented with upper eyelid ptosis and diagnosed as orbital conjunctival epithelial cyst.

Özet

Orbitada yer kaplayan kitleler özellikle ön orbitada yer aldıklarında mekanik pitozise neden olabilirler. Konjonktival epitelyal kistler bu lezyonlar içinde ender görülen, klasik konjonktiva epiteli ile çevrili kistler olup primer yada travma veya cerrahiye sekonder karşımıza çıkabilirler. Bu yazıda üst kapakta pitozis ile başvuran 20 yaşındaki bir hastada saptanan orbitanın konjonktival epitelyal kisti olgusu sunulmaktadır.
