A Growing Pink Periorbital Papule in a Middle‐Aged Man: A Clinicopathological Challenge

This report describes a case of a 48-year-old man who presented with a slowly enlarging lesion on the right lower eyelid that had been present for 8-9 years. The skin biopsy revealed an apocrine carcinoma of the eyelid. We discuss the clinical and histopathological differential diagnosis of apocrine carcinoma, along with treatment recommendations for these tumors.

Abstract

This report describes a case of a 48-year-old man who presented with a slowly enlarging lesion on the right lower eyelid that had been present for 8-9 years. The skin biopsy revealed an apocrine carcinoma of the eyelid. We discuss the clinical and histopathological differential diagnosis of apocrine carcinoma, along with treatment recommendations for these tumors.
