Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) is an uncommon condition affecting the eye. We herein report a rare case of eyelid swelling in paediatric age group. A three-year-old Malay boy presented with chronic painless left upper eyelid mass which did not resolve with topical steroid. Clinically, the mass was a non-tender and firm nodular swelling which located at the lateral 1/3 of the left upper lid. Total excisional biopsy of the swelling was done and histopathological findings were consistent with JXG. The systemic associations and the treatment options for ocular JXG are discussed.
幼年性黄色肉芽肿(JXG)是一种累及眼部的罕见病症。我们在此报告一例发生于儿童年龄组的罕见眼睑肿胀病例。一名3岁马来男孩出现左上眼睑慢性无痛性肿块,局部使用类固醇治疗后未消退。临床上,该肿块为位于左上眼睑外侧1/3处的非压痛性实性结节状肿胀。对该肿胀进行了完整切除活检,组织病理学检查结果与JXG相符。本文还讨论了眼部JXG的全身关联情况及治疗选择。
