Data on a series of consecutive patients with histopathologically confirmed diagnosis were reviewed. Results. Among 34 patients, 69 tumours were identified. The mean age at diagnosis was 59 years (range39- 91 years). The majority (71% ) of patients had only a single tumour. The tumours appeared as a small (median size=1 mm) clear cystic lesion with 87% located near the eyelid margin. Conclusions. The eccrine hidrocystoma is a benign small cystic tumour that characteristically occurs close to but does not involve the eyelid margin.展开更多
