Pigmented tumors of the eyelid are often difficult to identify accurately, as different tumors may have the same clinical presentation. We report the case of a 84 year old female patient who noticed a black tumor of the lower eyelid, with a recent increase in size. Clinically, this lesion was an exophytic tumor of the medial part of the left lower eyelid, respecting the lacrimal punctum and involving the palpebral margin. A surgical excision was performed. Microscopic examination revealed a pigmented seborrheic keratosis, a benign tumor of the epidermis. Histopathology has a key role in the precise diagnosis of pigmented tumors of the eyelid, in which the differential diagnosis concludes sweat gland cysts, pigmented basal cell carcinoma, naevus and uncommon malignant melanoma.
