Abstract

Atypical mitotic figures, apoptotic bodies, scattered bare nuclei, and many lymphoid cells were also seen [Figure 1]c, [Figure 1]d. The differentials considered were primary sebaceous carcinoma of the salivary gland, cutaneous adnexal neoplasm with sebaceous differentiation, metastasis of renal cell carcinomas (RCC), and metastasis of sebaceous carcinoma. The cell morphology was typical of sebaceous cells, and hence the patient was re-examined; a painless yellowish indurated ulcer with loss of eyelashes was found at the left upper eyelid [Figure 1]a. A diagnosis of metastasis of sebaceous carcinoma was rendered. [...]it may often be overlooked or undiagnosed.
