    A rare socket granuloma mimicked conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma. The lesion was caused by a retained silicone exoplant from prior surgery, highlighting the need to review patient history for iatrogenic foreign bodies.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Orbital socket lesions can present diagnostic challenges.
    • Conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma is a malignancy requiring specific treatment.

    Observation:

    • A patient developed a rare granuloma in the ocular socket.
    • The lesion clinically resembled conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma.
    • The patient had undergone evisceration 6.5 years prior for a traumatic retinal detachment.

    Findings:

    • Excisional biopsy revealed a granuloma composed of loose connective tissue, capillary proliferation, and lymphocytic infiltration.
    • A silicone exoplant fragment was identified at the base of the lesion.
    • The exoplant was related to a previous surgery for retinal detachment.

    Implications:

    • Socket granulomas can mimic malignancies, necessitating thorough diagnostic evaluation.
    • Reviewing prior operative procedures is crucial for identifying iatrogenic foreign bodies in socket lesions.
    • Retained foreign materials can lead to delayed complications years after initial surgery.
