We performed an observational, descriptive temporarily retrospective study; were evaluated 241patients with different eyelid tumor etiologies in the time period from 1981 to 2009. The average age was 44,17 years and 162 patients (67.2 %) were female. There was no location preference for the affected area.The tumors were benign pathology in 164 cases (68 %) and malignancy in 77 patients (32%). The most frequent postoperative diagnoses included basal cell carcinoma in malignant tumors in 63 patients (82%), and chalazion among benign tumors in 25 patients (15,2 %). The surgical techniques employed were simple excision with suture in benign tumors, and muscle monopediculated flap from upper eyelid. Postoperative one year follow up in 38 of patients (15,8 %) observed malignant tumor recurrence in 6 cases (7,7 %).
