Description
Amer Alemam and co-authors report, in a 2026 case paper, a rare benign gland tumor at the inner corner of a patient's eye. This tumor usually grows in the vulvar or perianal skin of women. Finding one on the lacrimal caruncle is exceptionally rare, with only one similar case in the eye literature. A 61 year old woman had a painless, reddish mass there for three months. Surgeons removed it fully. Microscope checks showed its typical layered pattern, with no sign of cancer, and removal is curative.
