Abstract
Reported here is a 33-year-old man presented with a 5-year history of subconjunctival mass. By immunohistochemical analysis, the tumor cells were strongly positive for S-100 protein. Herein, presenting this rare case of ours, we imply that ophthalmologists should consider schwannoma in the differential diagnosis of subconjuntival masses.
Özet
Bu makalede 33 yaşında 5 yıllık bir subkonjonktival kitle öyküsü olan erkek hastayı sunduk. İmmünohistokimyasal analizde tümör hücreleri S-100 proteine pozitif yanıt verdi. Bu nadir görülen vakayı sunarak oftalmologların subkonjonktival kitlelerin tanısında schwannomayı da düşünmelerini istedik.
