[Eyelid nevi: differential diagnosis and surgical treatment].
Congenital nevi are very rare. Acquired nevi belong to the most common group of skin tumours. Eyelid nevi occur frequently in a great variety. They are treated for cosmetic reasons or due to the risk of malignant transformation. This contribution explains the differential diagnosis of various types of nevus and the surgical techniques of resection and plastic reconstruction.
