Invasive squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva Sonda Kammoun Mona Rekik Saloua Ben AmorJamel Feki<p>Introduction: Squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva is generally a low-grade tumor. Invasive squamous cell carcinoma, however, is uncommon, and intraocular extension has rarely been reported. We report a case of invasive squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva with intra-ocular involvement in 94 year-old man.</p><p>Methods: A case report.</p><p>Results: A 94-year-old male patient presented with a rapidly growing exophytic mass involving the right eyeball for 2 months.The biopsy performed a well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva.&nbsp;</p><p>The extension assessment showed local bone extension. The patient underwent exenteration with good postoperative consequences.</p><p>Conclusion: This disease has a variable appearance. Late presentation with large orbital tumours are not uncommon. Early diagnosis is crucial to improve the visual prognosis.</p> International Journal of Immunotherapy and Cancer Research - Peertechz Publications 2020-10-08 Case Report https://doi.org/10.17352/2455-8591.000026 en Copyright © Sonda Kammoun et al.
