Article Synopsis
- Conjunctival lymphangiomas are rare, benign growths originating from lymphatic tissue, often appearing as swelling or cyst-like structures on the bulbar conjunctiva.
- A case study of a 36-year-old male revealed a unique horn-like protrusion, which was surgically removed with cryotherapy due to potential cancer concerns.
- Following surgery, histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis, and one year later, the patient showed no signs of recurrence and remained symptom-free.
