Abstract:
A 26 year old female presented complaining of a pea-sized nodule on her left lower eyelid for 10 years duration. Histopathological study showed several cysts in the dermis surrounded by secretory cells. The cysts were filled with decapitatory secretions. Positive staining with carcinoembrynic an tigen(CEA) was detected by immunoperoxidase technique.
