Abstract
We report a patient with sebaceous gland carcinoma of the finger. Sebaceous gland carcinomas located outside the ocular adnexa are rare, with fewer than 100 cases documented to date. The majority of these arise in the head and neck where sebaceous glands are plentiful. Because this tumor shows no pathognomonic characteristics, accurate histologic evaluation is essential to its diagnosis. Local excision may not be adequate treatment for a sebaceous gland carcinoma of the digit. Ray amputation was the treatment of choice for this patient.
