Recurrent Benign Mixed Tumor of Lacrimal Gland: Report of a Case with Intracranial Extension
Keyword(s):
A 66-year-old man with benign mixed tumor of the lacrimal gland underwent an excisional biopsy in 1966. Three recurrences subsequently developed, which resulted in an orbital exenteration. In 1979 he came to us. We discovered radiographic evidence and surgical confirmation of recurrent disease involving the lesser wing of the sphenoid and dura in the floor of the anterior cranial fossa. The natural history and management of this tumor is discussed and the relevent literature is reviewed.
