ABSTRACT
Cylindroma is a rare benign tumour of eccrine origin that has not been previously reported within the orbit. We report a case of a recurrent orbital cylindroma following incomplete excision. A 75-year-old female presented with a recurrent left inferomedial orbital mass. Seven years prior a mass of the same location was excised and on histology at the time resembled a cylindroma. The patient had a history of lung adenocarcinoma. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) found the recurrent mass to be a well-circumscribed lesion anterior to the inferior oblique. The mass was subsequently excised. Histological analysis found a well-circumscribed neoplasm with a characteristic jigsaw pattern of nested cells, consistent with cylindroma. This case demonstrates the possibility for cylindromas to occur within the orbit and their ability to reoccur if incompletely excised.
