Observations: A 59-year-old African American man presents with chronic and recalcitrant recurrent chalazion of both upper eyelids despite aggressive medical management. An incision and drainage procedure was performed along with biopsy of the eyelid, which was found to be consistent with LSC. A thorough review of the English literature pertaining to LSC of the eyelids was performed by querying PubMed and Google Scholar. Though two clinical reports of LSC of the eyelid were found in older literature, only one such case confirmed by biopsy has been reported until now. Conclusions: LSC of the eyelid is rare and this is the first reported case that is associated with chronic and recalcitrant chalazion.Steven H. AdamsNatalie T.
