  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A-67-year-old woman presented with a red nodulation on the left upper eyelid. The tumor measured 3 X 5mm in size. Biopsy showed findings suggesting Merkel cell carcinoma. The lesion was treated by surgical removal including the tarsal plate and by eyelid reconstruction. Computed tomoraphy and gallium scintigraphy showed meastasis to the mediastinal lymph nodes. There has been no recurrence during 6 months after surgery and no functional or cosmetic problem. Merkel cell carcinoma is rare but is highly malignant. This case illustrates that it can be treated by early detection by biopsy and by early surgery.
