Treatment of chalazia with intralesional triamcinolone injection.

Chalazia are commonly encountered lesions of the eyelids. They often resolve spontaneously or respond to a conservative therapeutic regimen. Chalazia not responding to this type of treatment are often referred for surgical extirpation. This article presents an alternative to surgery, namely intralesional injection of a synthetic glucocorticoid. Reports show a high success rate with few complications using this procedure. A patient with chronic bilateral chalazia was given intralesional injections after conservative therapy was unsuccessful. Two corticosteroid injections produced complete resolution of the lesions.
