Abstract

Amyloidosis is a group of disorders characterized by the extra cellular deposition of a substance called amyloid in various tissues. When present as a conjunctival mass with recurrent haemorrhage the condition mimicks a neoplastic lesion. We report such a patient who had complaints of a conjunctival mass with recurrent subconjunctival haemorrhage. The diagnosis of amyloidosis was made by excisional biopsy and confirmed by Congo red staining. Further work up did not reveal any evidence of systemic amyloidosis. 

Key words : Conjunctival amyloidosis; Congo red; Neoplastic leison.
