Abstract

ABSTRACT: A translucent cyst adjacent to the left lateral canthus enlarged slowly over 2 years in a 48-year-old woman. Readers will be challenged to choose the correct diagnosis based on case presentation, history, and symptoms. The differential diagnosis of translucent, cystic lesions on the face requires a careful assessment because both benign and malignant lesions must be considered.
