Acquired capillary haemangioma of the eyelid in a late adolescent girl.

Adult capillary haemangiomas of the eyelid are rare, with only a few cases reported in the literature. We report the case of a late adolescent girl with an acquired capillary haemangioma of the right upper eyelid preseptal region. The differential diagnoses considered were folliculitis and pyogenic granuloma, but the histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of capillary haemangioma. At the end of 10 months, the patient has not yet reported any recurrence and has no cosmetic complaints.
