Microcystic adnexal carcinoma—diagnostic criteria and therapeutic methods: case report and review of the literature

Microcystic adnexal carcinoma (MAC) is a rare, infiltrating, locally aggressive cutaneous neoplasm of combined follicular and eccrine/apocrine histogenesis, usually presenting on the upper lip or face. Differentiation from other adnexal tumours is very important because the clinical management of these tumours is radically different, and misdiagnosis may lead to incorrect treatment. A case of recurrent MAC in the upper lip, treated with multiple excisions and postoperative radiation therapy (PORT), is presented herein.
