INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Conjunctival squamous papilloma is a benign tumor that might be linked to Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. The most common appearance is a pedunculated fleshy mass. We are reporting a unique of HPV-related conjunctival papilloma that was excised with the suspicious of malignancy.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 35-year-old Saudi male who has been investigated for a suspicious pancreatic lesion and presented with a concurrent right eye conjunctival yellowish cystic mass. The mass was excised for diagnostic purpose to rule out malignancy in view of the history, the clinical appearance of the lesion, and the adjacent conjunctival severe congestion. The histopathological examination concluded a viral-related conjunctival papilloma. There was no evidence of recurrence of the lesion 2 years postoperatively.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION: The common clinical appearance of a benign conjunctival papilloma is usually described as fleshy pedunculated mass with irregular grayish red surface. Such a lesion might be related to several etiologies, one of which is HPV. The mass in our case was highly vascularized and cystic with yellowish areas, which raised the suspicion of a malignant lesion. The histopathological findings, however, confirmed the benign nature of the lesion and supported the viral etiology by HPV.
CONCLUSION: HPV-related conjunctival papilloma may have various morphological appearances. Histopathological examination is the key for final diagnosis of such types of lesions.
