Abstract

PURPOSE: We reported a case of squamous cell carcinoma in a patient with chronic herpetic keratitis treated with Mitomycin C.
METHODS
In a patient with 13-year recurrent chronic herpetic keratitis, we diagnosed invasive squamous cell carcinoma in papillary mass with no response of previous treatment by conjunctival biopsy.
RESULTS
After surgical removal and chemotherapy of 0.04% topical Mitomycin C, the eye showed histopathological resolution of squamous cell carcinoma.
