Sebaceous carcinoma of upper eyelid.

A middle aged lady was surgically treated repeatedly elsewhere for growth on right upper lid before presentation to this department. On examination she was found to have nodulo-ulcerative non-tender growth, about 40 x 20 mm in size involving the lateral three-fourth of the lid. There was associated mild conjunctivitis and palpable pre-auricular lymph node. Lid growth was excised followed by lid reconstruction. Pre-auricular lymph node was also removed. Histopathology report of the tissue revealed it to be the palpebral sebaceous carcinoma, while lymph node showed reactive hyperplasia.
