Microcystic adnexal carcinoma (MAC) is a rare, aggressive facial tumor primarily affecting women. This case highlights the significant reconstructive challenges associated with extensive surgical excision for local control of MAC.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatopathology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Microcystic adnexal carcinoma (MAC) is a rare, locally aggressive neoplasm.
  • It is recognized as a distinct clinicopathologic entity.
  • MAC predominantly affects the facial region of young to middle-aged women.

Observation:

  • A specific case of MAC involving the upper lip and columella in a young woman is presented.
  • The clinical presentation and diagnostic considerations are discussed.
  • The surgical management and reconstructive complexities are detailed.

Findings:

  • The case illustrates the typical aggressive behavior of MAC.
  • Extensive surgical excision is often necessary for local tumor control.

  • Reconstruction of facial defects, such as the upper lip and columella, presents a significant challenge.

    • Implications:

    • Accurate diagnosis and complete surgical resection are crucial for managing MAC.
    • Advanced reconstructive techniques may be required to restore function and aesthetics.
    • Further research into the optimal treatment strategies for MAC is warranted.
