title: Conjunctival lipid granulomas in a cat.
abstract: A 12-year-old, neutered male cat was examined because of a persistent serous ocular discharge from the left eye. Three, pale cream, 1-4 mm lesions were detected in the palpebral conjunctivae of the left eye. The surgical excision of the lesions resulted in complete resolution of the epiphora. Histological examination confirmed that the lesions were lipid granulomas but the aetiology and pathogenesis of them were not determined. No disease conditions which result in primary or secondary hyperlipoproteinaemia were detected.
