Abstract
To investigate a case of isolated pedunculated congenital corneal dermoid. Case report. In a 14-day-old infant, the pedunculated portion of the dermoid was removed and confirmed by histopathologic examination. No surgical complication or recurrence was encountered, and the patient is waiting for a rotational autokeratoplasty. Prompt treatment of such an unusual tumor is important to allow for visual rehabilitation and development.
