title: Pleomorphic lipoma of the bulbar conjunctiva.
abstract: We describe a patient who had most of the histologic features of the pleomorphic lipoma. Floret giant cells and nuclear pyknosis were well demonstrated in this case, and characteristic bubbly nuclear vacuolations were also seen. There was an absence of mitotic activity. The variable size of the adipocytes and nuclear pyknosis and the presence of collagen indicate an atrophying degenerative process in the formation of pleomorphic lipoma.
