Abstract:
A case of nodular fasciitis occurring in the eyelid is presented. The clinical and pathologic features of this rare cause of an eyelid mass are discussed. Nodular fasciitis should be considered in the pathologic differential diagnosis of connective tissue tumors of the periorbital region. It is important not to confuse nodular fasciitis with fibrosarcoma, as simple excision is curative for this condition.
