Peripunctal melanocytic nevus involving the lacrimal canaliculus: A case report

Abstract

A 56-year-old woman complained of a mass in the right eye’s lower eyelid. Slit-lamp examination revealed a dark mass with pigment in the inner canthus of the right lower eyelid involving the lacrimal punctum. The mass was removed and confirmed to be peripunctal melanocytic nevus. We have presented the first case of peripunctal melanocytic nevus involving the lacrimal canaliculus with histologic evidence. No recurrence occurred.
