Abstract
|
|
|
|
Sebaceous carcinoma is a relatively rare and aggressive malignant tumor. Periocular area (especially eyelid) is the most common lesion to occur, and the most common extraocular lesion is the parotid gland. Because the lesion also mimic other benign inflammatory diseases, this leads to delayed diagnosis or misdiagnosis. Here, we report a 58-year-old male patient who presented with a non-tender painless left parotid mass after wide excision of sebaceous carcinoma in the left eyelid two years ago. When he was diagnosed with sebaceous carcinoma of left eyelid, there was a small left parotid tumor on the computed tomography. But no further examination and treatment were performed. Two years later, physical examination revealed growing parotid tumor and multiple neck nodes on the left side. After radical parotidectomy and neck dissection, histological examination showed a sebaceous carcinoma and neck node metastasis. Considering the aggressiveness of sebaceous carcinoma, further evaluation for parotid glands should be considered when sebaceous carcinoma of the eyelid was discovered. Postoperative chemoradiotherapy was performed for disease control. Follow up after two years, and computed tomography showed no sign of recurrence.
