Abstract

We saw a 62-year-old male with a conjunctival chemosis, which was resistant to local therapy. Excisional biopsy and histological work-up of the tissue were performed. Additional immunohistochemical staining using the Lyve-1 antibody (specific for lymphatic vascular endothelium) allowed the diagnosis of a lymphangioma of the conjunctiva to be made.
