Abstract
Adult onset xanthogranuloma is one of the very uncommon four varieties of adult xanthogranulomatous disease diagnosed mostly by characteristic histology. The work focuses on excision of the mass in the control of recurrence and associated periocular manifestations. The entity of above case report is very rare and unique and needs proper treatment and careful follow-up to prevent cosmetic disfigurement.
