ABSTRACT
Choristomas are defined as benign congenital overgrowth of normal tissues in an abnormal location, which can contain lacrimal gland, muscle, cartilarge, adipose tissue, nerve, epidermal appendage. There are many reports about choristoma but cartilarge containing choristoma is very rare. We experienced a 20-year-old healthy male patient complaining of mass on limbus. The diagnosis was limbal dermoid. After tumor removal, histopathologically it was proved as complex choristoma. It contains not only muscular tissue, adipose tissue, neural tissue but also cartilarge. We report this case because of the rarity of cartilarge containing choristoma.
