Spherulocystosis (myospherulosis), a rare entity, is characterised by histopathological changes of sac-like refractile structures in soft tissue and presents clinically as an inflammatory lesion. It is caused by trauma or is induced iatrogenically by the topical application of fat based ointments. A case of myospherulosis confined to the region of the lacrimal caruncle, which developed soon after topical antibiotic application for suspected conjunctivitis, in a 49 year old woman is reported. Though this lesion is uncommon, this report illustrates the importance of recognising this condition to avoid confusion with and treatment for fungal infection.
球囊囊肿病（肌球囊病）是一种罕见病症，其特征为软组织中出现囊状折光结构的组织病理学变化，临床症状表现为炎性病变。它由外伤引起，或因局部应用脂肪基软膏医源性诱发。本文报告了一例49岁女性患者，其肌球囊病局限于泪阜区域，在因疑似结膜炎局部应用抗生素后不久发病。尽管这种病变并不常见，但本报告说明了认识这种病症以避免与真菌感染混淆及进行正确治疗的重要性。
