✦ Synopsis
Of 806 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma cases, only one primary subconjunctival lymphoma case was observed in Hacettepe Children's Hospital over a period of 16 years. The patient was a 12 year-old-boy with a subconjunctival mass on the upper part of his right eye. Biopsy revealed malignant lymphoma. Extensive investigations disclosed no other site of tumor. He was given the modified LSA2-L2 protocol. He has been in remission for 22 months. This may be the first report of a primary subconjunctival lymphoma in the childhood period.
