  • Title: Three carcinomas in one eyelid.
    Author: Whipple KM, Lombard PN, Oh SR, Korn BS, Kikkawa DO.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg; 2011; 27(3):e54-5. PubMed ID: 20829731.
    Abstract:
    A 90-year-old woman presented with 2 masses on the right lower eyelid. Excisional biopsy revealed 1 lesion to be Merkel cell carcinoma and the other to be invasive squamous cell carcinoma. The patient also had a prior history of basal cell carcinoma in the same eyelid. This case emphasizes the importance of careful pathologic examination of all eyelid lesions regardless of previous history.
