World J Clin Cases. 2020 Nov 26;8(22):5751-5757 Authors: Hao FY, Wang YL, Li SM, Xue LF Abstract BACKGROUND: Sebaceous lymphadenoma is a benign tumor that occurs rarely in the salivary glands, most commonly in the parotid glands or periparotid lymph nodes, and even more rarely undergoes malignant transformation into a sebaceous lymphadenocarcinoma. CASE SUMMARY: We report an 82-year-old woman who presented with a painless mass in the right parotid region. We performed extended surgical resection of the parotid gland mass. Intraoperative pathology revealed a sebaceous lymphadenocarcinoma with metastasis into the periparotid cervical lymph nodes, so we also performed neck dissection and lymph node resection. Postoperative pathology confirmed the diagnosis. The literature review revealed that this was the seventh reported case of sebaceous lymphadenocarcinoma and the second reported case of cervical lymph node metastasis and infiltration of the skin of the parotid gland. CONCLUSION: Treatment of sebaceous lymphadenocarcinoma depends on the typing and clinical staging of the cancer. Extensive resection is the first choice, and adjuvant radiotherapy should be given to patients with high-grade tumors or those at an advanced clinical stage.
