This study presents a rare case of primary vulval sebaceous carcinoma (SC) and a literature review. Sebaceous carcinoma is an aggressive skin malignancy, predominantly periocular, with extraocular cases being particularly uncommon. We detail a 50-year-old female patient diagnosed with primary vulval SC, exhibiting a 0.5 cm white lesion on her left vulva. Despite initial drug therapy, the lesion progressed to ulceration and induration. Histopathological examination confirmed SC. The patient underwent extensive local vulvectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy, showing no evidence of metastasis. At 22 months post-surgery, the patient remained recurrence-free. A literature review identified 13 additional cases, highlighting diverse presentations and management strategies. Our findings underscore the importance of sentinel lymph node biopsy and tailored surgical approaches for early-stage disease. The study contributes to the understanding of this rare condition and may inform future management protocols.
本研究报告了一例罕见的原发性外阴皮脂腺癌(SC)病例并进行文献综述。皮脂腺癌是一种侵袭性皮肤恶性肿瘤,主要发生于眼周,眼外病例尤为罕见。我们详细介绍了一名50岁女性患者,诊断为原发性外阴皮脂腺癌,其左侧外阴有一个0.5厘米的白色病变。尽管最初进行了药物治疗,但病变进展为溃疡和硬结。组织病理学检查确诊为皮脂腺癌。患者接受了广泛的局部外阴切除术和前哨淋巴结活检,未发现转移迹象。术后22个月,患者无复发。文献综述发现了另外13例病例,突出了不同的表现和治疗策略。我们的研究结果强调了前哨淋巴结活检和针对早期疾病的个性化手术方法的重要性。该研究有助于加深对这种罕见疾病的理解,并可能为未来的管理方案提供参考。
