Description

Eyelid neoplasms are abnormal growths or tumors that occur on the eyelids. They can be benign or malignant and may arise from various types of cells, including skin cells, sebaceous glands, and hair follicles.

Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that patients may refer to eyelid neoplasms using terms like 'tumores en los párpados' or 'bultos en los ojos', which are colloquial and less precise. It is essential to use the correct clinical term 'neoplasmas de los párpados' in formal contexts to avoid confusion.

Example Sentences

EN: The dermatologist diagnosed the patient with eyelid neoplasms that required further evaluation.

ES: El dermatólogo diagnosticó al paciente con neoplasmas de los párpados que requerían una evaluación adicional.

Common Interpreter Mistakes

Confusing 'neoplasmas' with 'neurosis'; mixing up eyelid neoplasms with other skin lesions; mispronouncing 'neoplasmas' as 'neoplasmas' but with incorrect stress.
