Abstract

MASQUERADE SYNDROMES, CLASSICALLY REFERS TO NEOPLASTIC ENTITIES WHICH MIMIC INFLAMMATORY OR OTHER FORMS OF NON-NEOPLASTIC DISEASE CONDITIONS. THIS PHENOMENON HAS BEEN OBSERVED IN A VARIETY OF TUMORS SUCH AS SEBACEOUS CARCINOMA, OCULAR SURFACE SQUAMOUS NEOPLASIA, MEDULLOEPITHELIOMA, RETINOBLASTOMA, LYMPHOMA, XANTHOGRANULOMA AND METASTASIS TO LIST A FEW. WITH SIGNIFICANT HETEROGENEITY IN CLINICAL PRESENTATIONS, THE DIAGNOSIS OF OCULAR AND ADNEXAL TUMORS THUS CAN BE A CHALLENGE AND ARRIVING AT A DIAGNOSIS IN TIME CAN HAVE PROFOUND IMPLICATIONS IN OPHTHALMIC ONCOLOGY. THE SESSION WILL INCLUDE INTERESTING CASE SCENARIOS AND CASE BASED DISCUSSIONS DIRECTED TOWARDS IMBIBING CLINICAL PEARLS AND SUCCINCT LESSONS. BASICS OF HISTOPATHOLOGY AND APPROACH TO IMMUNOCHEMISTRY FURTHER IMPROVE THE UNDERSTANDING OF LINE OF MANAGEMENT. BY THE END OF THIS COURSE, THE LEARNER WILL BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY ATYPICAL PRESENTATIONS OF OCULAR/ADNEXAL TUMORS AND DISTINGUISH THEM FROM CLOSE MIMICKERS OF THE SAME.
