Endocrine Mucin–Producing Sweat Gland Carcinoma: Two New Eyelid Cases and Review of the Literature
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Endocrine mucin-producing sweat gland carcinoma (EMPSGC) is a rare low-grade sweat gland carcinoma. It is clinically often mistaken for basal cell carcinoma and presents a low rate of local recurrence. In this article, we present 2 new cases of EMPSGC arising in a similar location (left lower eyelid) and review the literature on this topic. One patient is a 72-year-old male with complete excision and no evidence of recurrence after 17 months of surveillance. The second patient is a 77-year-old female with incomplete initial excision and local recurrence after 38 months. p63 immunostain was negative in both cases. EMPSGC should be suspected in elderly patients with lesions of eyelids. Histologically, it should be considered and worked up if the lesion is separated from the overlying epidermis and presents a mucinous component. Complete excision is advised to avoid local recurrences.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
