Epibulbar conjunctival fibroma

Norman C Charles et al. Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg. 2007 May-Jun.

Abstract

A nodular, epibulbar mass appearing in an adult woman without antecedent inflammation or injury prompted concern for possible malignancy. Excision was performed, and pathologic examination demonstrated a conjunctival fibroma. The rarity of the fibroma and its clinical similarity to other benign or malignant tumors render its clinical diagnosis elusive.
