- 摘要：Purpose
To report one case of pleomorphic adenoma of the lacrimal gland in a child.
Case summaryA 7-year-old boy presented with a 2-month history of an exophthalmos and mild ptosis of the left eye; there were no other ophthalmologic problems. Orbit MRI revealed a well-defined mass in the left lacrimal gland and a defect in the orbital roof due to pressure erosion. Tumor resection was performed via a lateral orbitotomy and a biopsy was requested. The biopsy revealed tumor tissue that was composed of epithelial elements with variably sized duct formation. Focal squamous metaplasia and keratin production was also observed.
ConclusionsPleomorphic adenoma of the lacrimal gland should be considered as a differential diagnosis of a lacrimal gland mass in a child.
