NAVARRO VIVO, Jamilett; HERRERA HERNANDEZ, Norma  and  MOREJON SANZ, Antonio. Corneal -conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia. A propos of a case. Rev. Med. Electrón. [online]. 2012, vol.34, n.4, pp. 490-495. ISSN 1684-1824.

We expose the case of a patient, aged 81 years old, a fisherman, who assisted the consultation of the Teaching Clinico-surgical Hospital Comandante Faustino Pérez Hernández, of Matanzas, in March 2011, because of a reddening of his right eye during the last six months.  At the ophthalmologic examination we found a whitish, nodular lesion with irregular edges extended from the external bulbar conjunctive to the limbus and external third of the cornea with three satellital nodular lesions in the paracentral region. We diagnosed a corneal-conjunctival intra-epithelial neoplasia, being corroborated through the anatomopathologic study of the biopsy. Currently he is asymptomatic, with a satisfactory evolution.

Keywords : Bowen disease; intraepithelial neoplasia; intraepithelial carcinoma.
