[Eyelid sebaceous carcinoma. A case report with literature review].
Sebaceous carcinoma of the eyelids is a rare malignancy of which most cases require extensive excision followed by usually complete eyelid reconstruction. We report a case developed from the Meibomius glands of the lower eyelid. Complete excision was achieved by removing the entire eyelid 'en bloc'. Reconstruction was with a composite, chondromucosal septal graft layered on an upper eyelid, musculocutaneous, transposition flap based on a lateral pedicle. After a brief review of the relevant literature, the advantages and disadvantages of the various methods of complete lower eyelid reconstruction are discussed.
