Spectrum of eyelid lesions-a histopathological study in South India

Abstract

ABSTRACT Eyelids are complex structures that protect the anterior surface of the globe. Eyelid lesions range from benign, self limiting conditions to malignant, possibly metastatic tumors. Aim To assess the histomorphology of various eyelid lesions, determine their frequency, age and sex distribution in our study population and compare them with the other studies. Materials and Methods This is a retrospective study involving 122 patients of either sex presenting with lesions involving the eyelid, reporting to a tertiary care hospital in Karnataka. Results We came across 67.72% neoplastic, 28.34% inflammatory/ infectious, and 3.94% miscellaneous lesions. There was a slight female predominance with a male to female ratio of 1:1.18. The mean age at presentation was 43.7 years, range being 1-90 years. Majority were in their 3rd and 4th decades. Among the neoplastic lesions, 90.7% were benign. The most common benign, malignant and inflammatory lesions were nevus, sebaceous carcinoma and chalazion respectively. Uncommon stromal lesions, such a s fibrous histiocytoma and a rare variant of basal cell carcinoma with sebaceous differentiation were encountered. Conclusion The frequency of eyelid lesions depends upon age group, source institution, racial and geographic factors. Histopathology remains the mainstay for diagnosis. In addition to determining the malignant potential of a lesion, it reveals its exact nature and structure, thereby influencing management and prognosis.
