Trichofolliculoma is a rare benign tumor of the skin, with distinct pilar differentiation and a predilection for the head and neck. To the best of the authors' knowledge, only 10 cases of eyelid trichofolliculoma has been described in the English literature. Moreover, these benign hair follicle lesions have been reported to clinically mimic eyelid malignancy. The authors report a case of a 58-year-old woman with a nodule on the eyelid margin, with typical clinical features and characteristic histopathological findings aiding the diagnosis of trichofolliculoma. Complete resection was performed to prevent recurrence. The authors also reviewed all the cases of eyelid trichofolliculoma reported in literature to highlight the demography, clinical features, and management of this rare eyelid tumor.
