[Lid basaliomas with malignant courses (author's transl)].

H Brewitt, B Huerkamp

    Klinische Monatsblatter Fur Augenheilkunde
    |June 1, 1975

    Summary

    Malignant basal cell carcinoma of the eyelid can aggressively destroy ocular and orbital tissues, even infiltrating the brain. Early histological diagnosis and lifelong follow-up are crucial for managing this aggressive eyelid tumor.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Dermatology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common eyelid malignancy.
    • Malignant BCC can exhibit aggressive local invasion, posing significant treatment challenges.

    Observation:

    • Three cases of eyelid basal cell carcinoma with advanced malignant progression are presented.
    • Case 1: Extensive eyelid destruction.
    • Case 2: Orbital and paranasal sinus invasion.
    • Case 3: Intracranial brain infiltration.

    Findings:

    • Histological examination is essential for accurate diagnosis and determining tumor infiltration depth.
    • Aggressive BCC necessitates prompt and comprehensive treatment strategies.

    Implications:

    • Early and accurate diagnosis via histology is critical for effective management.
    • Lifelong patient follow-up is imperative for monitoring recurrence and metastasis of eyelid BCC.
    • Multidisciplinary approaches are vital for managing advanced cases of malignant eyelid tumors.
