Sebaceous Gland Carcinoma of Eyelid: Tumour Biology Based Surgical Approach

Abstract

Sanjoy Chowdhury*, Madhumita Srivastava, Nilanjan Chowdhury, Naveen and P Pande

Malignant tumours of the face are usually seen in the periocular region. Sebaceous gland carcinomas mostly occur on the upper eyelid due to abundance of meibomian glands. Approach for the tumor should be based on its biology. The best treatment for eyelid malignant tumours is the total excision of the lesion with frozen section control. Defects created should be reconstructed judicially taking care that the near-normal anatomical and functional recovery is achieved. Here we present a case of SGC which was excised and the defect was reconstructed wit Cutler-Beard flap procedure which very well restored the anatomy and function of our patient.
