Shailee Chugh Dr. Dr. Sunny Chhabra Dr. April 2018 7 4 01 02 ABSTRACT

Background:Eyelid and periocular skin lesions are very common in patients.These lesions are numerous due to the unique anatomical features of the eyelid. The main aim of this study was to evaluate relative frequency of eyelid tumors and clinico–histological correlation.

Method: This was a prospective as well as retrospective study conducted in PBM hospital and associated group of hospitals in Bikaner zone and it included 93 cases of eyelid tumors which were examined histopathologically.

Result:Out of 93 cases, 79 were benign tumors and 14 were malignant. Most common benign eyelid tumor was epidermal cyst followed by dermoid cyst, nevus and pyogenic granuloma. Most common malignant eyelid tumor was basal cell carcinoma followed by sebaceous gland carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.
