Abstract :
Purpose: To describe a case of trichoblsatoma on the eyelid.
Case Report: A 45‑year‑old woman presented with a recurring mass on her upper right eyelid.
Histopathological examination revealed well‑circumscribed tissue composed of an aggregation of basaloid
cells. Immunohistochemistry showed positive staining for CD34 and CD10. The patient underwent total
excision of the recurrent mass.
Conclusion: Although rare, trichoblastoma should be considered in differential diagnosis of skin masses
of the eyelids.
