“…Of our nine patients who had wide local excision and a mean follow‐up of 54 months, two (22%) had recurrence of tumor. This recurrence rate following wide local excision is in accordance with previously reported 5‐year local recurrence rates of 9% to 36% 1,9,15–18 …”

Treatment should be chosen on the basis of the extent of the tumor and the specific needs of the patient. The mainstay of treatment of tumors without orbital involvement has been wide local excision, with the margins checked in both permanent and frozen sections, in combination with conjunctival map biopsies when warranted. Mohs micrographic surgery is an alternative that may provide tissue conservation and lower recurrence rates. Recurrence rates between treatments are difficult to assess because of the small number of cases reported in the literature. In cases with orbital involvement, exenteration may be warranted. Radiation may be useful when surgery cannot be tolerated.

“…Five of nine patients (55%) showed epithelial invasion. 1,2,[11][12][13][14] Today, most ophthalmic plastic surgeons advocate the use of frozen sections to monitor the peripheral margins of skin cancer, 15,16 including SC. This patient has had no evidence of disease for 5 years.…”

Sebaceous Carcinoma of the Eyelids Treated by Mohs Micrographic Surgery: Report of Nine Cases with Review of the Literature

We present nine new cases of SC. The age, sex, and site distribution are compatible with other SC cases reported in the literature. We reviewed the medical literature and compiled 49 cases of SC treated by Mohs surgery. Intraepithelial spread was discovered in 50% of the cases. Multifocal disease or discontinuity was present in 6% (3 of 49). Mohs surgery appears to be an effective method for excising the microscopic ramifications of primary SC. When feasible, we recommend in SC cases where intraepithelial pagetoid spread has been observed, that removal of another Mohs layer should be considered in order to provide an additional assurance layer against local tumor recurrence.

“…Squamous cell carcinoma is the second most common form of eyelid cancer and represents less than 5% of all eyelid malignancies. (Piest, 1992) In this study, only 1 case of squamous cell carcinoma was diagnosed (4.5%). Sebaceous cell carcinoma is a rare eyelid tumor and originates from folliculo-sebaceous apocrine unit.…”

Introduction: The aim of the study was to explore the distribution of eyelid tumors in Ankara, the capital city of Turkey, from a histopathological point of view. Materials and Methods: Medical records of 1,502 patients who had eyelid surgery because of tumoral lesions were retrospectively reviewed after obtaining institutional review board approval. A total of 1,541 lesions with histopathologic diagnosis were included. Inflammatory tumoral lesions were excluded. The lesions were categorized into three groups according to the origin: epidermal, adnexal tumors and 'others', including melanocytic, neural and vascular lesions. Results: Of the total of 1,541, 908 lesions were epidermal in origin. Only 22 (1.5%) were malignant, and 6.0% was premalignant lesions such as actinic keratosis and Bowen's disease. Twenty-one of 22 malignant lesions were basal cell carcinoma. There was only one patient with squamous cell carcinoma and no sebaceous cell carcinoma. Among the benign tumors (92.5%), squamous papilloma was the most frequent (21.8% of all lesions). The other frequent lesions were nevus (17.6%), seborrheic keratosis (17.3%), hydrocystomas (10.6%), xanthelasma (7.6%) and epidermal cysts (7.2%). Conclusions: The results of this study are in accordance with published literature. The absence of sebaceous cell carcinomas needs to be stressed.
