چکیده

433 noma. Also in the current case, the patient presented with benign and malignant tumors arising from the sebaceous gland at a younger age. This led to an impression of Muir-Torre syndrome followed by various clinical and laboratory examinations. However, there were no other internal malignancies. In patients with Muir-Torre syndrome, however, the sebaceous gland tumor might occur prior to or following the occurrence of internal malignancies. Otherwise, it might also be concurrently present with them. Accordingly in the current case, regular check-ups are being performed regularly to monitor the recurrence of sebaceous carcinoma and the occurrence of internal malignancies. The general treatment guidelines are that a wide excision with a safety margin of 5 to 6 mm should be performed in combination with a frozen section biopsy and a permanent section one [1,3]. In the current case, a wide excision was performed with a safety margin of 5 mm. Synchronously, a frozen section biopsy was performed for the resection margin. The ocular sebaceous carcinoma had a metastasis to such organs in 3% to 25% of total cases, based on which a poor prognosis has been well documented [2,3]. The doctor should ask about family history of skin and internal malignancies. A physical examination and laboratory examinations should be performed as well as palpation of the lymph nodes and adjacent and contiguous structures to determine the extent of disease. The authors experienced a very rare case of extraocular sebaceous carcinoma that occurred in the nevus sebaceous of the occiput, and have obtained good treatment outcomes using a wide excision with a safety margin of 5 mm and a local flap on a frozen section biopsy. Here, we report our case with a review of the literature.
