| Popis: | Inverted papillomas are benign epithelial tumors usually arising from the mucous membrane of the sinonasal cavity and the urinary tract. Similar tumors of the conjunctiva are much rarer. We describe a case of juxtalimbal inverted papilloma in an 11-year-old boy who presented with a pigmented lesion that simulated a conjunctival nevus. Excisional biopsy established the diagnosis of inverted papilloma. The patient was carefully followed for 2 years, because the tumor's behavior in the conjunctiva is unknown. There was no recurrence of the lesion. |
