Abstract

Malignant neoplasms of sebaceous glands are rare; these generally occur in the ocular adnexae where sebaceous carcinoma presents as an infiltrating malignancy with a poor prognosis. Extraocular sebaceous carcinoma are rarer but have a better prognosis. Those tumors occur generally in older patients. A 32-year-old man is presented 10 years post-surgery with local recurrence and nodal metastasis. The potential course of this tumor is emphasized and the relevant literature reviewed.
