Clinical symptoms of conjunctival lipoma?

summary

Conjunctival dermoid lipoma is a common disease, but also a benign lipoma, so suffering from this disease, do not over tense, by taking medicine, or surgery is completely curable, this lipoma is generally covered by eyelids, exposure is not much, if the lipoma individual is not large, it does not need surgical treatment, conjunctival lipoma clinical symptoms? Let's talk about it

Clinical symptoms of conjunctival lipoma?

Patients usually show painless exophthalmos, because the tumor is located in the upper and rear, and the eyeball moves downward. Spindle cell lipoma, in particular, tends to occur in the anterior part of the orbit, with a smooth mass palpable above the eyeball.

The disease mostly occurs in adults, mostly unilateral orbit. The exophthalmos is non axial because the tumors are rarely located in the muscle cone. The exophthalmos located in the upper orbit is anterolateral and inferior, and the exophthalmos located in the lateral orbit is anterolateral and medial.

Generally, there is no pain, and the tumor grows to the anterior part of the orbit. If the eyelid is turned over, the tumor can be found through the conjunctiva, which is pale yellow. The tumor is soft and can slide on the surface of eyeball. The density of the lesion is the same as fat or slightly higher than fat. The anterior orbital lesion can make the orbital septum protrusion. Orbital cavity enlargement was seen in patients with long history.

matters needing attention

Surgical resection is an effective method to treat the disease. Most orbital lipomas have definite boundaries and can be completely removed by surgery. Careful separation can remove the lesions wrapped by the thin wall of the capsule. The boundary of the tumor is not clear and only partial resection can be performed. Because most of these tumors occur above the orbit, they are often treated surgically from above. The prognosis was good.
