| Abstract | BACKGROUND: To report a rare case of eyelid eccrine porocarcinoma and compare this to previous documented cases in the literature. MAIN OBSERVATIONS: We report a case of an 86-year-old man who presented with three months' history of irritation in the right eye, who was found to have an irregular nodule on lower eyelid, which was later diagnosed as eccrine porocarcinoma (EPC). The lesion was excised and the defect repaired with Hughes flap. A computerized tomography (CT) scan of the head, neck, and chest showed no metastasis and no lymphadenopathy. There was no evidence of recurrence after 18 months of follow-up. CONCLUSION: To date, there have been only six cases of eyelid EPC reported in the literature. EPC has significant risk of recurrence and metastases after local excision. It is therefore important to consider it in the differential diagnosis of malignant eyelid tumour. A histological diagnosis should prompt wide margin excision, assessment of the patient for regional lymph node involvement, and imaging for metastatic disease. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
