An 86-year-old man presented with an ulcerated, painless right lower eyelid lesion of unknown duration. Excisional biopsy was performed to rule out suspected basal cell carcinoma. Pathologic evaluation demonstrated syringocystadenocarcinoma papilliferum. Three months after complete excision of the tumor, the patient remains well with no evidence of local recurrence or metastases. Review of the literature identified 20 cases of syringocystadenocarcinoma papilliferum, none of which presented in the skin of the ocular adnexa. The authors review the typical presentation, clinical course, and outcome of patients with syringocystadenocarcinoma papilliferum and compare these data to the case presented here.
