ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To report a case of eyelid myxoma in Carney syndrome. CASESUMMARY:
A 24-year-old male presented with a 4-year history of a slowly growing nodule at the right upper eyelid. The patient underwent surgical excision five times for the eyelid nodule, which recurred at the same site. He was diagnosed with Carney syndrome. The eyelid lesion was pinkish and lobulated, and the surface was firm and soft. The nodule was completely excised and a histopathological examination revealed a myxoid matrix containing spindle- or stellate-shaped cells and many thin-walled vessels. The nodule was diagnosed as myxoma. There was no recurrence at 13 months after surgery.CONCLUSIONS:
Myxoma rarely involves the eyelid, but it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of multiple recurrent nodules of the eyelid. Complete excision is important if clinically suspected, and regular follow-up is needed after surgery. In addition, a thorough systemic evaluation, including echocardiography, should be performed to find any evidence of Carney syndrome.
