Abstract
Malignant adnexal tumors (MAT) form a group of rare, typically low-grade- malignancy carcinomas with follicular, sebaceous, apocrine, or eccrine differentiation or a combination of the first 3 subtypes, the biopsy is required to establish the differentiation subtype and the definitive diagnosis. our case is a 67 years old female presented to our department of maxillofacial surgery of Ibn Sina hospital in Rabat with a left frontal skin lesion that had begun evolving 6 months ago. An excisional biopsy was performed afterwards using an elliptical excision with 1 cm of margins laterally and including the periost deeply, and then the sking defect was sutured in 3 layers. Malignant pilosebaceous tumors are more rare, especially those of the hair follicle. Sebaceous gland carcinoma commonly arises in the periorbital area. Surgical resection is the most commonly implemented treatment modality in MATs.
