    Abstract:
    The pleomorphic adenoma was the most common epithelial tumor of the lacrimal gland. The 2 major factors determining the prognosis of pleophormic adenoma of lacrimal gland were likelihood of recurrence and evidence of malignant transformation. Management of the recurrent pleomorphic adenoma was difficult. Moreover, the malignant transformation was danger for life. The reason for orbital recurrent involved many factors, but the main reasons may be related to correct preoperative judgment of the nature of the tumor, taking the appropriate surgical approach and operative techniques. Long-term follow-up was available for the patient. It could help doctors detect recurrence of tumor earlier and treat it timely. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2016, 52: 241-243).
