摘要：
A case of a 9-year-old child with pleomorphic adenoma of the lacrimal gland is described.This tumour is usually found in adults; cases younger than 10 years of age have proved to be extremely rare. Because of its age distribution, pleomorphic adenoma of the lacrimal gland is usually overlooked as a possible cause of unilateral proptosis in children. Also, the history of disease provided by the family may be incorrect, possibly leading to misdiagnosis by the ophthalmologist.
