Porocarcinoma with orbital metastasis, a case report with review of literature.

We present a patient who presented with an orbital mass lesion which was a metastatic lesion from a porocarcinoma of the scalp with progressive deterioration of the patient.A 78-year-old male presented with functional decline and a rapidly growing scalp lesion of 3 months duration. In addition to the scalp lesion, Computed Tomography showed an incidental finding of a left lateral orbital wall tumour. Fine-needle aspiration of the two lesions revealed malignant cells with similar morphologies. Punch biopsy of the scalp lesion showed histological features suggestive of a porocarcinoma. Patient underwent palliative radiotherapy and immunotherapy and subsequently succumbed to the disease.
