Conjunctival myxoma: A systematic review of a rare tumor.

Conjunctival myxoma is an uncommon benign tumor that may develop as a localized disease or as part of the Carney complex, in which case it can cause significant morbidity and mortality. Conjunctival myxomas can mimic other pure or mixed tumors and are often overlooked in clinical practice. Histopathological studies are essential for diagnosis; however, controversy regarding their pathological and immunohistochemical features makes the diagnostic process more difficult.

Epibulbar osseous choristoma: A clinical case and review of the literature.

We present the case of a 3-year-old male child with an epibulbar bone choristoma. The patient presented with a hard consistency subconjunctival mass of 8×10mm in the superior-temporal quadrant of his right eye along with vascularisation and a long cilium of approximately 8 to 10mm that touched the corneal surface. The histopathology study showed the presence of trabeculae of mature, compact bone surrounded by fibrous tissue, as well as Havers channels with concentric rings of laminar bone without bone marrow, and with normal osteocytes which defined the diagnosis of epibulbar bone choristoma.
