ABSTRACT
A conjunctival papilloma in a four-year-old boy had recurred despite one surgical removal, and three cryosurgical treatments. After sensitization of the child's lymphocytes to dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB), the lesion responded rapidly and completely to debulking followed by painting the base of the tumor with DNCB. We feel that the effectiveness and simplicity of debulking and DNCB treatment of conjunctival papillomas, which have resisted previous standard forms of therapy, gives an easy, relatively inexpensive, and rapid method of treating these lesions.
