Subconjunctival Choristoma: Description and Surgical Management of Two Pediatric Patients
Abstract
Choristomas are benign, normal tissues that grow in an abnormal location, with osseous choristomas being the rarest. In this report, we present the diagnosis and treatment of two patients with subconjunctival lesions that extended to the lateral eyelid, causing eyelid distortion. A decision for surgical intervention was made, and pathological analysis was performed, which was most consistent with osseous choristoma. We present the diagnosis, surgical management, and pathological analysis of two of the rarest conditions.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
