  • Title: Inferomedial dermolipoma with ectopic lacrimal gland.
    Author: Ferri S, Shinder R.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Plast Reconstr Surg; 2013; 29(2):e43-4. PubMed ID: 23128533.
    Abstract:
    A 25-year-old woman presented with a painless inferomedial subconjunctival mass in the right eye. The growth had been present since birth and had been increasing in size for over 1 year. Incisional biopsy with debulking proved the lesion to be a dermolipoma extending behind the globe that contained ectopic lacrimal gland tissue. The authors describe a very rare case of a complex dermolipoma arising in an atypical location and containing ectopic lacrimal gland.
