Abstract
RATIONALE Conjunctival myxoma is a rare benign tumor, which can mimic more common conjunctival lesions such as a cyst, lymphangioma, amelanotic nevus, neurofibroma, amelanotic melanoma, or lipoma. We describe a patient with the conjunctival myxoma, who was initially misdiagnosed as a conjunctival cyst. This case report includes intraoperative photographs and various immunohistochemical staining images. PATIENTS CONCERNS A 55-year-old woman presented with a painless mass in the superotemporal conjunctiva of the left eye, which she had noticed 1 month ago. The patient had no previous history of trauma or eye surgery. Slit-lamp examination revealed a well-circumscribed, freely movable, pinkish, semi-translucent mass on the temporal bulbar conjunctiva, suggestive of a conjunctival cyst. DIAGNOSES Histopathological analysis showed stellate- and spindle-shaped cells within the loose myxoid stroma, confirming a diagnosis of conjunctival myxoma. INTERVENTIONS The conjunctival lesion was completely excised under local anesthesia. OUTCOMES After 4 months of follow-up, the patient remained in good health without recurrence of the conjunctival lesion and no evidence of any systemic abnormality. LESSONS Myxoma is an extremely uncommon benign tumor derived from primitive mesenchyme. Considering the rarity of the tumor and its similarity to other conjunctival tumors, diagnosis can be challenging. Ophthalmologists should consider myxoma as a possible differential diagnosis when encountering conjunctival lesions. Surgical excision is essential to confirm the diagnosis and careful systemic evaluation is required to prevent potentially life-threatening underlying systemic conditions.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to report the clinicopathological features and management of the first case of bilateral synchronous conjunctival myxoma. METHODS This study was a case report and literature review. RESULTS A 66-year-old Chinese male with past ocular history of uncomplicated bilateral phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOLs) 3 years ago prior to presentation presented with bilateral red and swollen conjunctiva for over a year. On examination his corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was 25/20 in the right eye 20/20 in the left eye. Slit lamp examination revealed swollen temporal conjunctiva bilaterally which appeared as painless, well-circumscribed, salmon-pink, fleshy patches. The lesion in the right eye was subsequently excised, followed by excision of the lesion in the left eye at 3-week interval. Microscopically, histopathological examination of both excised specimens revealed hypocellular conjunctival mucosa covered by non-dysplastic epithelium, with presence of myxoid degeneration in the subepithelial stroma and immunostaining findings consistent with conjunctival myxoma. At his latest follow-up at 24 months, there were no recurrences of the conjunctival masses and the CDVA was the same as preoperatively.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE Ocular myxomas are very rare and can involve the orbit, eyelids, and conjunctiva. Conjunctival myxoma can be misdiagnosed as amelanotic nevus, conjunctival cyst, or ocular surface squamous neoplasia, among others. They can appear as an isolated lesion or can be associated with systemic manifestations as part of the Carney complex or Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. CASE PRESENTATION We describe a 64-year-old healthy male who presented with a right eye painless peri-limbal salmon-colored patch lesion in the infero-temporal bulbar conjunctiva over a period of 2 years. There was no of ocular trauma or surgery and no effect on vision. The mass was not tender, raised, and mobile with fine intrinsic vascularity. Excisional biopsy with the presumed diagnosis of lymphoma revealed a typical sub-conjunctival myxoma. DISCUSSION The recognition of ocular myxoma necessitates systemic evaluation to rule out possible associated cardiac myxoma in Carney complex, thus can prevent life-threatening events. The excised mass in our patient showed an area of pseudo-elastotic degeneration, which has further complicated the clinical appearance of the lesion, however, the color, and consistency of the mass were highly suspicious of lymphoma. The diagnosis of myxoma by histopathology was helpful especially in presence of atypical appearance such as in our case. CONCLUSION The histopathological characteristics of conjunctival myxoma can aid in the diagnosis. The lesion in our case was associated with focal severe pseudo-elastotic degeneration and prominent salmon-patch appearing area thus was initially misdiagnosed clinically as a conjunctival lymphoma.

Abstract
Conjunctival myxoma is an uncommon benign tumor that may develop as a localized disease or as part of the Carney complex, in which case it can cause significant morbidity and mortality. Conjunctival myxomas can mimic other pure or mixed tumors and are often overlooked in clinical practice. Histopathological studies are essential for diagnosis; however, controversy regarding their pathological and immunohistochemical features makes the diagnostic process more difficult. Because of the importance of correctly classifying these conjunctival tumors, as well as recognizing when a systematic screening is required owing to the possible association with life-threatening diseases, we comprehensively evaluate the literature on this rare entity based on a systematic approach.

Abstract
ABSTRACT A 59-year-old man with a palpable mass above the left eyebrow that had appeared over a 1-year period presented to our clinic. He previously had been administered antiglaucoma eyedrops for pseudophakic glaucoma of the left eye and had undergone Ahmed glaucoma valve implant surgery. The palpable mass above the left eyebrow was soft, nontender, and large. On slit lamp examination, the Ahmed valve was positioned in the superotemporal quadrant of the limbal conjunctiva, and there was no other abnormal finding. Computerized tomography (CT) imaging showed a dense, soft tissue lesion in the left upper lateral periorbital area. The patient underwent tumor excision with biopsy under general anesthesia, and the histopathologic result was myxoma. To rule out Carney complex, dermatological and cardiac evaluation were performed, and the results were normal. Finally, the tumor was diagnosed as isolated myxoma. Isolated myxoma around the upper eyelid is very rare, and complete surgical excision is needed because it has a high recurrence rate.

Abstract
Purpose To describe a case with a growing erythematous conjunctival mass in the left eye, diagnosed as conjunctival myxoma. Observations A 31-year-old lady had corrected visual acuity of 6/7.5 and normal intraocular pressure in both eyes. Congested left bulbar conjunctiva with one slightly elevated nodule at nasal area was noted for one year. Excisional biopsy was performed after failed treatment with topical eye drops. Pathology showed conjunctival myxoma with spindle- and stellate-shaped cells, which was a rare ocular surface neoplasia. There was no combined systemic disease found. Conclusions and importance We described the clinical and pathological features of conjunctival myxoma. Systemic evaluation should be considered before and after surgical excision.

Abstract
A 74-year-old woman with Carney complex (CNC) and complaints of poor vision was found, on ophthalmic examination, to have a pigmented tumor involving the peripheral choroid and ciliary body in her right eye. The eye was enucleated and showed a ciliochoroidal melanoma with marked pleomorphism. The tumor did not recur or metastasize after almost 10 years of follow-up, and the patient died of unrelated causes. Molecular studies revealed a complex genome with multiple whole-chromosome losses including monosomy of chromosomes 1, 2 (including loss of CNC2at 2p16), 14, 17 (including loss of a copy of PRAKA1 at 17q24.2), 18, 19, 21, 22, and X. No monosomy 3 was observed. This is only the second case of uveal melanoma in a patient with CNC, raising the possibility that this might represent a rare component of this syndrome.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical and pathologic characteristics of conjunctival myxoid lesions, with specific focus on PRKAR1A studies, in order to distinguish neoplastic conjunctival myxoma from other myxoid conjunctival lesions. METHODS A retrospective, interventional, multicenter study of all patients with conjunctival myxoma, conjunctival stromal tumor, or reactive fibromyxoid proliferation diagnosed during 1988-2018. Patient and family medical histories and clinical and pathologic characteristics of excised lesions were assessed. RESULTS There were 28 patients with conjunctival myxoid lesions diagnosed as myxoma (16/28), conjunctival stromal tumor (10/28), or reactive fibromyxoid proliferation (2/28). The patients with abundant myxoid matrix lesions (14/28, 50%) were younger (mean 49 [range 23-68] years) than those with scant-to-moderate myxoid matrix lesions (14/28, mean 61 [range 18-82] years; P = .04). Abundant myxoid matrix lesions more likely contained predominantly stellate cells (6/14 [43%] vs 0/14 [0%]; P = .05) and fibrillar collagen (13/14 [93%] vs 2/14 [14%]; P < .0001), conforming to the standard morphologic definition of myxoma. Absence of PRKAR1A protein expression was found in 2 lesions with morphologic features of myxoma (2/14, 14%), 1 of which demonstrated a pathogenic mutation in the PRKAR1A gene. There was no difference between the lesions with respect to other clinical and pathologic parameters. CONCLUSIONS PRKAR1A plays a role in the development of a subset of conjunctival myxomas, particularly in tumors fulfilling stringent morphologic criteria for myxoma. With the exception of PRKAR1A studies, current immunohistochemical panels cannot reliably distinguish between neoplastic conjunctival myxomas and other myxoid lesions, underscoring the importance of morphology in establishing accurate diagnosis.

Abstract
AIMS Myxomas are benign soft tissue tumours resembling primitive mesenchyme. They rarely involve ocular structures, and have been recognized in the conjunctiva, eyelids, cornea, and orbit. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinicopathological features of seven patients with primary conjunctival myxoma seen at Dr Luis Sánchez Bulnes Hospital, an ophthalmological referral centre in Mexico City. METHODS AND RESULTS We reviewed the clinical, histochemical and immunohistochemical studies of patients with documented myxoma of the conjunctiva diagnosed in our hospital. Seven conjunctival myxomas were retrieved from 5923 conjunctival biopsies (0.1%). The mean age of patients was 40 years, with a range of 27-51 years. Females were more frequently affected, and none of our patients had systemic disease. The left eye was involved in five cases, and most of the lesions were located in the bulbar conjunctiva. Histopathological examination revealed a benign tumour composed of spindle-shaped and stellate-shaped cells immersed within an abundant mucinous matrix with sparse vessels and reticulin fibres. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated positivity for vimentin and negativity for smooth muscle actin, SOX10 and GLUT1 in myxoma cells of all cases. S100 was found to be positive in four cases, and muscle-specific-actin in three cases. CONCLUSIONS Conjunctival myxomas are uncommon tumours. For accurate diagnosis, histopathological examination is mandatory. The treatment of choice is surgical removal, and the prognosis is excellent.
