Persistent cutaneous lymphoid hyperplasia of the face with conjunctival involvement

P. H. Duray, W. H. Burgdorf and R. W. Goltz

Lymphocytic infiltration of the orbital conjunctiva has not, to our knowledge, been previously reported as a phenomenon of secondary involvement following long-standing cutaneous lymphocytic infiltration of the face. We encountered a woman with facial cutaneous lymphocytic infiltration pursuing a benign but persistent course, with eventual involvement of the conjunctiva after 15 years, which responded to low-dose radiation therapy.
