Abstract:
A 15 year-old male patient visited our department with a progressively enlarged conjunctival mass on Nov. 28, 1988. Excisional biopsy and histopathologic examination revealed cavernous hemangioma, an uncommon tumor of the conjunctiva. Authors report a case of cavernous hemangioma of the bulbar conjunctiva. A review of literature of recent years related to cavernous hemangioma was added.
