Abstract
Background
The eyelids are a small anatomical structure, yet they contain several histological layers from which benign and malignant tumors can originate. Compared to other parts of the face, the eyelids are often the first place where neoplasms or disease changes are noticed.
Aim
To analyze localization and its predictive malignancy of eyelid tumors over a 10-year period.
Method
A retrospective study of 436 (450 eyes) patients operated on over a 10-year period. Descriptive, dispersion and correlation analyzes were performed.
Results
The results provide a clear assessment of the distribution and incidence of eyelid tumors according to the localization of the defect, involvement of the lash line, inflammatory response, etc. Tumor distribution is significantly skewed in favor of the medial canthus, 80% to 20% by all tumors. The involvement of the lid margin occurs in 83% of malignant tumors and has significant predictive value.
Conclusion
The lower eyelid and the medial canthus are preferred locations for malignant tumors, and the upper eyelid for benign ones. Our study does not affect the types of surgical techniques; its purpose is to show the expected malignancy of the different combinations by location. The location of the tumor is a leading factor in the choice of the oculoplastic reconstructive procedure.
