Histiocytic Sarcoma of the Eyelid: An Uncommon Presentation of a Rare Neoplasm

Listen to this summary

The authors aim to highlight the rare occurrence of histiocytic sarcoma presenting in the eyelid, as it is typically found in other extranodal sites. They present a case of an 80-year-old man with a rapidly growing eyelid lesion, diagnosed through biopsy, and successfully treated with complete excision, followed by a monitoring strategy that showed no recurrence after two years. This case adds to the limited literature on eyelid histiocytic sarcoma and underscores the importance of recognizing this unusual presentation.
