Abstract

A 39-year-old female presented with a painless yellow-pink tumor on her right eye. High-frequency ultrasound imaging revealed an epibulbar lesion with homogenous low internal reflectivity and no evidence of intraocular invasion. The patient underwent excisional biopsy leading to a pathology diagnosis of myxoma. Additional surgical margins as well as adjuvant cryotherapy margins were followed by extensive conjunctival repair. Herein, we report on a conjunctival myxoma with unique ultrasonographic findings.
