title: Dermatofibroma of the eyelid: a case report.
abstract: A 5-year-old girl presented with a large swelling measuring 50 x 35 mm in the left upper lid. The mass was firm to hard in consistency. Fine-needle aspiration showed a few spindle-shaped cells arranged in clusters. The mass was excised in toto and the histopathological examination revealed dermatofibroma, which is an extremely rare condition affecting the eyelid.
