abstract: Presented is a case of a woman-patient with a mixed tumor of the lacrimal gland which grew to an infrequently seen size. The tumor was excised and identified as a non-malignant one. Three years after surgery came a renewed extensive expansion of the tumor. Exenteration of the orbit was performed and histopathological examination revealed a mixed malignant tumor of the gland.
