Abstract: Plexiform schwannoma of the lacrimal gland of the palpebral lobe has not been previously described. This 41-year-old male presented with a 2-year history of a left upper eyelid mass and associated regional irritation. MRI of the head and orbits confirmed a left superolateral multinodular mass centered on the palpebral lobe of the left lacrimal gland. Excision revealed a schwannoma of the plexiform subtype.<br />Competing Interests: The authors have no financial or conflicts of interest to disclose.<br /> (Copyright © 2023 The American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Inc.)
