Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare and potentially aggressive neuroendocrine tumour. The authors describe a unique presentation of a 4.5 cm wide MCC of the upper lid in a 73-year-old female. After total upper lid resection, immediate reconstruction was achieved by a full-thickness lower-lid transposition flap based on the lower lateral palpebral artery. At the 3 year follow-up the patient is free from disease and the reconstructive result is satisfactory both functionally and aesthetically.
默克尔细胞癌（Merkel cell carcinoma，MCC）是一种罕见且具有潜在侵袭性的神经内分泌肿瘤。作者描述了一位 73 岁女性上眼睑 4.5 厘米宽的 MCC 的独特表现。在上眼睑全切除术后，通过基于下外侧睑缘动脉的全层下眼睑转位皮瓣立即进行了重建。在 3 年随访时，患者无疾病且重建效果在功能和美观上均令人满意。
