Abstract
A 68-year-old woman developed an asymptomatic left caruncular multilobular lesion over one year. Excision of the lesion displayed a benign sebaceous neoplasm taking origin from the surface squamous epithelium which invaginated into the stroma to create crypts resembling the conjunctival pseudoglands of Henle or the glands of Lieberkuhn of the small intestine. Scattered sebaceous cells were also discovered in the surface squamous epithelium. The cryptal walls spawned lateral sebaceous gland lobules that were adipophilin positive. p16 was positive in the surface epithelium, the cryptal walls, and in the basal cells of the sebaceous lobules. No defects in nuclear mismatch repair protein expression were identified, which together with the absence of a familial cancer history, rendered unlikely an association with the Muir-Torre syndrome.
