Abstract: We report a case of a 56-year-old woman with no significant pathological history, who had a right upper palpebral tumefaction gradually increasing in volume for 5 months. Clinical and paraclinical assessments led to a palpebral tumor whitout nature precising. . The diagnosis of sarcoidosis without systemic involvement was confirmed by the anatomopathological examination of the biopsy excision of the mass. The palpebral involvement without systemic involvement is an exceptional presentation, only a few cases have been reported in the literature.
