Abstract
Limbal squamous cell carcinoma is uncommon worldwide. Its early stages of presentation may look like the commoner limbal mass, pterygium. We report a case of invasive squamous cell carcinoma which was initially diagnosed as inflamed pterygium. A high index of suspicion is required to prevent delay in the diagnosis of an invasive condition that can destroy the eye completely. Treatment modalities are reviewed.Entities:
