Abstract

BRIZUELA CONCEPCION, Yasary et al. Corneal epithelial dysplasia. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2022, vol.35, n.2  Epub June 01, 2022. ISSN 1561-3070.

Corneal-conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasms are premalignant, poorly demarcated, slow-growing lesions with low malignant potential. Only the 9% progresses to invasive squamous cell carcinoma. It appears in several forms and presents multiple vascular dilatations. Primary corneal epithelial dysplasia is a rare form of corneal-epithelial intraepithelial neoplasia. We present a clinical case, confirmed by anatomopathologic studies. In the present study we observed a satisfactory response after one month of topical treatment with 5FU, with no side effects. Follow-up for three years has shown no signs of recurrence.

Keywords : CIN; corneo-conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia; primary corneal epithelial dysplasia.
