RESUMO
Squamous cell carcinoma is relatively rare in the eyelid, accounting for about 9.2% of all eyelid malignancy. Squamous cell carcinoma occurs most commonly in fair-skinned, elderly individuals who have had a history of chronic sun exposure and skin damage. This potentially lethal neoplasm is capable of metastasis to regional lymph nodes. Squamous cell carcinoma may arise de novo or from pre-existing lesions and also develop following radiation therapy. Various treatment modalities have been advocated including surgical extirpation with histologic control, radiation therapy and cryotherapy. We report this case of regional metastatic squamous cell carcinoma that developed from recurrent chalazion in 37 years old woman with a brief review of literetures.

Anophthalmos is a complete absence of the tissues of the eye. Embryologically, anophthalmos denotes those cases wherein there is complete failure in the outgrowth of the primary optic vesicle. When essential structures of the eye are present, the aonormality is microphthalmos, no matter how small the eye may be. Clinical anophthalmos represents the majority of cases in which the eye appears to be absent. Congenital anophthalmos is one of the rare ophthalmic anomalies, only 5 cases were reported in Korea and about 100 cases in the world. We report this case with a brief review of literatures.
