RESUMO
Peribulbar osseous choristoma is a benign, solid nodule; it is a subtype of epibulbar choristomas (belongs to single tissue choristomas), consisting of pure bony tissues. Epibulbar osseous choristoma is the rarest subtype of epibulbar choristomas, with only 65 cases reported since the mid-19th century; so, the rarity of the disease drove me to report it. A 7-year-old female presented with a painless left ocular superotemporal mass, which was present since birth and located under the conjunctiva. The primary diagnoses included lipodermoid and subconjunctival foreign bodies. Ocular interventions included a B-scan, examination under anesthesia and surgical excision of the mass in toto, and the histopathological examination showed that it was an osseous choristoma.
