CASTANEDA MUNOZ, Ángela M et al. Adenoma pleomórfico de glándula lagrimal ectópica. []. , 36, 6, pp. 861-866. ISSN 1684-1824.

^les^aEl adenoma pleomórfico es una de las neoplasias más frecuentes que puede originarse en la glándula lagrimal, pero su origen en tejido ectópico subconjuntival, palpebral  e intraocular ha sido escasamente reportado. Se presentó el caso de una paciente femenina de 60 años con tumor en órbita anterior de 4 meses de evolución, localizado por encima del párpado superior, dolorosa, firme, de 8 mm de superficie lisa, con Tomografía Axial Computarizada que informa proceso quístico V/S neoformativo. Se realizó biopsia excisional donde se encuentra nódulo tumoral bien delimitado de composición bifásica con abundante matriz cartilaginosa y mixoide, elementos mioepiteliales, epiteliales ductales y escamosos lo que establece el diagnóstico definitivo de adenoma pleomórfico. El tejido lagrimal ectópico  constituye un dilema y una neoplasia originada en ellos constituye mayor problema aun. Los avances en la cirugía oftalmológica han permitido el diagnóstico y cirugía temprano de lesiones tumorales de esta localización para beneficio de los pacientes.^len^aThe pleomorphic adenoma is one of the most frequent neoplasia that could be originated in the tear gland, but its origin in subconjunctival, palpebral and intraocular tissue has been scarcely reported. We present the case of a female patient aged 60 years with a hard, painful tumor in anterior orbit of fourth months’ evolution, located over the higher eyelid, of 8 mm plain surface; the computerized axial tomography shows a neoformative cystic V/S process. We carried out scissional biopsy finding a well-delimitated, biphasic-composition tumoral nodule with large amount of cartilaginous and mixed, myoepithelial, ductal epithelial and squamous elements, helping to establish the definite diagnosis   of pleomorphic adenoma. The ectopic lacrimal tissue is a dilemma and neoplasia originated in them is still a bigger problem. The advances in ophthalmologic surgery have allowed the early diagnosis and surgery of the tumoral lesions in this location for the patients’ sake.
