    Abstract:
    A clinicopathologic case of an 89-year-old female patient with a single cutaneous tumor at the outer part of the outer left eyelids is reported. It was a pink nodular mass, well circumscribed, exophytic and with thin vessels. After surgical removal, histopathology showed that the tumor was a typical basal cell carcinoma, with many cystic-like cavities. Basal cell carcinomas can be commonly observed on the eyelids and surgical excision of these small size lesions is an easy way to perform a curative treatment. As often in other tumors, early diagnosis is probably the easiest way to improve the prognosis.
