A 33-year-old lady was referred to our clinic with a history of left upper eyelid swelling and difficulty to open her left eye for more than 4 years. Her globe was in infero-nasal displacement, and ocular movement was not full, with restriction to every direction. No clinical sign including eye redness, pain or visual loss was found on examination. Exophthalmometry confirmed 2 mm of left-sided proptosis. Computed tomography (CT) imaging of the orbit obtained in axial and coronal planes depicted an irregular and heterogeneous soft-tissue density mass in the left lacrimal gland, measuring 25 × 17 mm. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed the mass of slightly longer T1 and slightly longer/shorter T2 signal, and Gd-enhanced MRI showed a significant enhancement. The tumor was first presumably diagnosed of pleomorphic adenomas. A surgery was applied to remove the tumor completely. Histopathological evaluation led to the diagnosis of PEComa.
