RESUMO
Los sebaceomas son tumores infrecuentes que se originan en los anexos sebáceos. Suelen desarrollarse en adultos mayores, más frecuentemente en cabeza y cuello. Su denominación es controversial, presentando características histopatológicas y clínicas similares a otras entidades, que presentan diferenciación sebácea. El pronóstico de esta entidad es bueno, siendo su tratamiento la extirpación quirúrgica. Sin embargo, su relevancia clínica se establece por su asociación frecuente con el síndrome de Muir-Torre, por lo que ante la presencia de esta neoplasia, es necesario descartar neoplasias viscerales ocultas. Presentamos el caso de dos pacientes con sebaceomas en diferentes localizaciones, que hasta el momento de esta publicación no presentaron síndrome de Muir-Torre asociado y realizamos una revisión de la literatura.
Sebaceomas are infrequent tumors originated from the sebaceous annexes. They usually develop in the third decade, more frequently in the head and neck. Its denomination is controversial, presenting both histopathological and clinical characteristics similar to other entities, with sebaceous differentiation. The prognosis of the condition is good, being its treatment the surgical removal. Though, its clinical relevance is established by its frequent association with the Muir-Torre syndrome, so that, in the presence of this neoplasm, it is necessary to rule out occult visceral neoplasms. We present two cases of sebaceomas in different locations that until this moment did not present associated neoplasm.
RESUMO
An eight years-old male ferret presented a ventral abdominal nodular mass near the inguinal region. On clinical examination, a warty nodular mass in the abdomen was detected and the ferret was submitted to excisional biopsy by surgical procedure. At histopathology, adenomatous structures with preponderance of basophilic reserve cells, some sebocytes and showing squamous differentiation were observed. The diagnosis of sebaceous epithelioma was established based on clinical presentation and histopathologic findings. The animal recovered and at the moment no complication was reported.
