Abstract

Sebaceous Carcinoma is a rare locally aggressive tumour of adnexal epithelium with a potential to metastasize to regional lymph node and distant organs. It constitutes between 1.5 to 5% of all eyelid malignant tumours. After basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas, it ranks third in incidence. Sebaceous carcinoma is seen more commonly in elderly females with average age at diagnosis in mid-sixties. Few cases have been reported in paediatric age group. Sebaceous Gland Carcinoma (SGC) is a slowly progressive tumor that arises usually from the meibomian gland in the eyelid, and has a locally aggressive nature with a tendency for pagetoid spread. The neoplasm is known to masquerade other benign and less malignant lesions. The non-specific clinical symptoms may lead to a delay in diagnosis of sebaceous carcinoma of the eyelid. Less than 120 cases of extra-occular sebaceous cell carcinoma have been reported so far. Here, the authors present a case of 60 years old female patient, who presented with cheek nodule and cytological diagnosis of metastatic sebaceous carcinoma was made based on cytomorphological features.
转移性皮脂腺癌表现为脸颊结节:一例罕见病例
皮脂腺癌是一种罕见的局部侵袭性附件上皮肿瘤,有可能转移到局部淋巴结和远处器官。它占所有眼睑恶性肿瘤的1.5%到5%。继基底细胞癌和鳞状细胞癌之后,在发病率上排名第三。皮脂腺癌常见于老年女性,平均诊断年龄在60岁左右。在儿童年龄组中报告的病例很少。皮脂腺癌(SGC)是一种缓慢进展的肿瘤,通常起源于眼睑的睑板腺,具有局部侵袭性,有页状扩散的倾向。已知该肿瘤可掩盖其他良性和非恶性病变。非特异性的临床症状可能导致眼睑皮脂腺癌的诊断延迟。不到120例眼外皮脂腺细胞癌被报道到目前为止。在这里,作者报告了一个60岁的女性患者,她表现为脸颊结节,根据细胞形态学特征诊断为转移性皮脂腺癌。
