To report a case of mucoepidermoid carcinoma, a highly aggressive variant of conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma.
We examined and treated a 57-year-old man with mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the caruncle, a highly unusual site for this tumor.
In the past, simple excision of this tumor has been followed by rapid recurrence. Our patient underwent wide surgical excision of the tumor and has shown no evidence of recurrence after 16 months of follow-up.
Mucoepidermoid carcinoma may first manifest in the caruncle. Histologically verified, tumor-free surgical margins are necessary for complete excision.
报告1例黏液表皮样癌，这是结膜鳞状细胞癌的一种高度侵袭性变体。
我们检查并治疗了一名57岁患有泪阜黏液表皮样癌的男性，泪阜是该肿瘤极不常见的发病部位。
过去，单纯切除该肿瘤后肿瘤迅速复发。我们的患者接受了肿瘤广泛手术切除，随访16个月后未显示复发迹象。
黏液表皮样癌可能首先在泪阜表现出来。经组织学证实，完整切除肿瘤需要切缘无肿瘤。
