Clinical diagnosis of tumors of the conjunctiva.
Tumors of the conjunctiva are easily visible to professional and lay observers. Because of this, they are frequently a source of patient self-referral. These lesions range from benign to malignant, and a differential diagnosis often requires the collaboration of the surgeon and pathologist as well as the diagnosing clinician. This article reviews the spectrum of conjunctival lesions based on how they appear to the clinician, with brief guidelines regarding management.
