title: [Benign pigmented lesions of the eyelids].
abstract: We describe benign pigmented tumors of the lids, including benign lesions of the epithelium such as papillomas, seborrheic keratosis, and inverted follicular keratosis; precancerous lesions of the epithelium such as xeroderma pigmentosum and actinic keratosis; melanocytic lesions such as Ota nevus, lentigo, and lentigo maligna; and nevi and other lesions simulating a melanoma such as pigmented hidrocystoma, angiomas, and epithelial cyst. For each of these lesions, we describe the clinical and histopathological aspect as well as the therapeutic guidelines.
