Caruncle tumors are rare and difficult to definitively diagnose using standard clinical examination techniques. Because some of these lesions may be cancerous, eventually leading to local invasion of tissue, metastasis, and even death, biopsy with histologic evaluation may be indicated. A brief discussion of caruncle tumors and a case report is presented.
