Abstract

 There are a wide range of treatments for conjunctival papillomas; however, no standard treatment has yet been established. Recurrence after treatment has been reported in many cases. Conjunctival papillomas are relatively rare ophthalmic diseases and reports in the field of plastic surgery are limited. Surgical treatment is the first choice when tumor growth causes functional impairment and morphological abnormalities for which plastic surgical intervention may be necessary. In the present study, we experienced a case of marked lower eyelid ectropion due to conjunctival papilloma, which was treated with cryotherapy and resection of the tumor followed by additional cryotherapy of the surrounding tissue, with no recurrence and good cosmetic results, based on a report by Theotoka et al. The results are reported with a discussion of the literature.
