title: Torre-Muir syndrome. An association with isolated sebaceous carcinoma.
abstract: Three cases of Torre-Muir syndrome are described in which isolated sebaceous carcinomas were associated with internal malignancy. The first was a 66-year-old woman who had a sebaceous carcinoma in association with carcinoma of the uterus, two adenocarcinomas of colon, carcinoma of renal pelvis and bladder, and a squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. The second was a 78-year-old woman who had a sebaceous carcinoma associated with carcinomas of the colon, ovary, and pancreas. The third patient had a sebaceous carcinoma associated with breast cancer. The subject is discussed and the previously reported cases reviewed.
