Abstract
PURPOSE: To present the pre-, per- and postoperative features of epibulbar osseous choristoma. METHODS: Case description including intraoperative imaging and histopathology. RESULTS: A 32-year-old male patient presented with a lesion on his right eye, suggestive of an epibulbar dermolipoma. Excision of bony lesion was performed and revealed epibulbar osseous choristoma. CONCLUSIONS: Epibulbar osseous choristoma is a rare and benign condition which can present with features similar to dermolipoma.
