Abstract

A 6-year-old male presented with a protruding hair emerging from a temporally located nodule on his left upper eyelid 5mm above the eyelid margin since birth. The lesion was excised and sent to histopathology. The features were consistent with congenital sebaceous trichofolliculoma, a rare hamartomatous skin lesion.
