SUMMARY: Pleomorphic adenoma of the lacrimal gland is a rare benign tumor of epithelial origin. Its presence can cause functional and esthetic considerations, and it has the rare ability of malignant transformation. The preoperative biopsy is a controversial issue. The surgical management of this tumor is the treatment of choice. Different approaches for excision of intraorbital tumors have been published, depending on the exact tumor site and size. We present a case of a pleomorphic adenoma of the lacrimal gland and we describe the surgical technique followed for its excision.
KEY WORDS: Pleomorphic adenoma, lacrimal gland, lateral orbitotomy.
