Abstract
|
|
|
Sebaceous gland carcinoma on the scalp and face is an uncommon, local malignant appendageal tumor of the skin. It is characterized by a tendency of local reocurrence and occasional metastasis. This tumor is infrequently diagnosed . A principal reason for this difficulty is the nonspecific clinical and gross pathologic appearance of the lesion.
Usual clinical lesion of sebaceous gland carcinoma on the scalp and face is a firm, raised, nontender nodule which is pink to yellowish color in gross appearance.
Histopathologically, sebaceous gland carcinoma shows the pleomorphic sebaceous cells which is characterized by an irregular shaped lobule, considerable variation in the shape and size of their nuclei, clear and foamy cytoplasm and frequent mitosis.
We report a case of sebaceous gland carcinoma on the scalp and review it.
