Abstract
Sebaceous carcinoma is a rare locally aggressive neoplasm of the sebaceous gland, which occurs frequently in elderly males. It constitutes 0.2 to 4.6% of all the malignant cutaneous tumours and occurs commonly in the periocular area. Scalp is a rare site for this tumor. Here we report a case of sebaceous carcinoma in a young 28 years old male patient who presented with firm to hard exophytic growth over right posterior occipital region with enlarged suboccipital and post auricular lymph nodes. Wide local excision was done and a diagnosis of sebaceous carcinoma of the scalp with lymph node metastasis was rendered after histopathological and Immunohistochemical examination.
