We report a case of KHE found on the eyelid of an adult patient.
UNASSIGNED: We present an adult patient in whom KHE recurred 6 months after tumor resection. He underwent second surgical resection and intraoperative chemotherapy. There was no evidence of recurrence at the 3-year follow-up.
UNASSIGNED: KHE in adults is easy to be misdiagnosed. KHE can be treated by surgical resection. Complete resection of the tumor and intraoperative chemotherapy may help prevent a recurrence.
