  • Title: Sebaceous carcinoma of the eyelid masquerading as superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis.
    Author: Condon GP, Brownstein S, Codère F.
    Journal: Arch Ophthalmol; 1985 Oct; 103(10):1525-9. PubMed ID: 4051856.
    Abstract:
    A 49-year-old woman had been treated for 18 months for superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis of the right eye. Pathologic examination of a biopsy specimen of the superior perilimbal conjunctiva disclosed intraepithelial carcinoma of sebaceous gland origin. Because of the extensive involvement of the conjunctival epithelium by tumor, a subtotal orbital exenteration was performed. To our knowledge, this is the first report of sebaceous carcinoma masquerading as superior limbic keratoconjunctivitis.
