Subepidermal calcified nodules (SCNs) are rare, benign childhood lesions that can affect the eyelids. This report details two pediatric cases misdiagnosed initially, highlighting SCNs

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Dermatology
  • Pediatrics

Background:

  • Subepidermal calcified nodules (SCNs) are uncommon, benign cutaneous lesions typically presenting in childhood.
  • Eyelid involvement by SCNs is rare, with limited cases documented in ophthalmologic literature.

Observation:

  • Two pediatric patients presented with eyelid lesions.
  • Clinical diagnosis considered juvenile xanthogranuloma for both cases.

Findings:

  • Histopathologic examination confirmed the characteristic features of Subepidermal calcified nodules (SCNs).
  • This confirmed the initial clinical suspicion of juvenile xanthogranuloma was incorrect.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of histopathologic examination for accurate diagnosis of eyelid lesions.
