This case report details a rare instance of hidradenocarcinoma, a malignant adnexal tumor, metastasizing to the orbit. The study highlights an unusual presentation of distant metastasis involving orbital structures and the optic nerve.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Ophthalmology
- Dermatopathology
Background:
- Hidradenocarcinoma is a rare malignant adnexal tumor.
- Metastasis to regional lymph nodes is known, but distant metastasis is uncommon.
- Orbital metastasis constitutes approximately 10% of orbital neoplasms, typically from breast, prostate, or skin cancers.
