RESUMO
This report describes the case of a hidrocystoma of the eyelid and the surgical technique used in the therapeutical management of benign cystic lesions of the eyelids. Hidrocystomas are relatively common benign lesions of the eyelids, principally the lower eyelid. They are more common in females over thirty years of age. Diagnosis is clinical and when there is a single lesion, surgery is the treatment of choice. The surgical technique used should be described in greater detail, since it offers good esthetic results and a low risk of recurrence.

Relato de caso de hidrocistoma palpebral e apresentação de técnica cirúrgica na conduta terapêutica dos tumores císticos benignos da pálpebra. Os hidrocistomas são tumores benignos relativamente frequentes nas pálpebras, principalmente, na pálpebra inferior, com maior prevalência no sexo feminino e a partir da quarta década de vida. O diagnóstico é clínico e, em casos de lesão única, a conduta cirúrgica é o tratamento de escolha. Deve-se descrever melhor a técnica cirúrgica utilizada, pois traz bons resultados estéticos e menor risco de recidiva.
