Abstract

A 31-year-old woman with a mass at the left inner canthus was referred to our hospital. Clinical examination failed to establish a diagnosis and the patient underwent an incisional biopsy. Histopathologic examination disclosed a hemangiopericytoma. Because the behavior of a hemangiopericytoma is unpredictable, this tumor should be included when making a differential diagnosis in lesions of the inner canthus.
