    Abstract:
    A clinico-pathologic case of an oncocytoma of the caruncle is reported in a 60-year old male patient. Clinically a granular reddish painless tumor was observed in the caruncle. A total surgical excision was performed. The histopathological study established the diagnosis of oncocytoma of the caruncle. Although rare, this tumor should be recognized by ophthalmologists, specially in elderly, because of exceptional adenocarcinoma. The oncocytoma is cured by surgical excision.
