ABSTRACT
Sebaceous adenocarcinoma is a rare adnexal tumor that can affect the skin and is divided into ocular, a more common form and extra ocular, of a rarer occurrence. We report the case of a patient diagnosed with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) who developed an extra ocular, bulky and fast-growing sebaceous adenocarcinoma on the face. The literature has suggested that transplanted patients and HIV-positive patients have an excess risk for developing adnexal tumors, including sebaceous adenocarcinoma.
Adenocarcinoma sebáceo é um tumor anexial raro que pode envolver a pele e é dividido em ocular, mais comum e extraocular, mais raro. Relatamos o caso de um paciente com diagnóstico de Síndrome da Imunodeficiência Adquirida que desenvolveu um adenocarcinoma sebáceo extra-ocular, na face, volumoso, de rápido crescimento. A literatura tem sugerido que pacientes transplantados e portadores do vírus da imunodeficiência humana têm um excesso de risco para o desenvolvimento de tumores anexiais, incluindo o Adenocarcinoma sebáceo.

Se realiza un estudio clínico e histopatológico de sesenta casos de nevo de Jadassohn, observados en el período comprendido entre los años 1973 y 1993. Se describen las características clínicas de nuestros pacientes y se las relaciona con las de la bibliografía. Se enfatizó en el estudio de las asociaciones tumorales. Se hallaron 6 casos de epitelioma basocelular, 4 casos con quistes de inclusión epidérmica ( 1 con calcificación), 3 casos con hidrocistomas apócrinos, un caso con verruga vulgar y un caso con inclusiones coilocitóticas. Se incluyen dos casos de síndrome del nevo epidérmico sebáceo lineal (facomatosis del nevo organoide)

The authors discuss clinical aspects of various afflictions of the meibomian gland. With the help of excellent color photographs, they illustrate aberrant meibomian eyelash in a 56-year-old woman, a rare meibomian cyst in a 2-year-old boy, acute meibomianitis [or meibomitis] discharging its abscess through the normal opening of the gland in a 23-year-old man, a huge chalazion of the lower lid in a 15-year-old girl, a meibomian granuloma pyogenicum in a 31-year-old man, and a histopathologically proven meibomian [sebaceous] carcinoma in a 41-year-old man. The discussion includes comments on pathogenesis and therapy of each disorder, with special reference to argon laser treatment of aberrant meibomian lashes, direct corticosteroid [triamcinolone acetonide, 5 mg/mL suspension] injections [up to a maximum of 0.2 mL] into chalazion, and early local excision of the sebaceous carcinoma. No local recurrence or distant mestatases appeared in the 10-year foliowup after a total local excision of the sebaceous carcinoma at an early stage in the patient reported here
