Abstract
A 4-year-old female beagle with progressive exophthalmos and which had a neoplastic mass with diameter of 1.4 cm in the left lower ocular adnexa. Histologically, the mass was composed of hyper-plastic lobules and tubular structures separated by fibrous septum. The well differentiated sebaceous gland forming various sized lobules, and infiltration of mast cells and mononuclear inflammatory cells were observed. Apical decapitation secretion of these tubular structures with basophilic materials in their lumen showed mild sebaceous gland metaplasia. Immunohistochemical studying, cell groups were positive in ${\alpha}-SMA$ and vimentin. The primary tumor was diagnosed as adenocarcinoma originated from moll gland and meibomian gland of the eyelid, and the infiltrating intraocular neoplasm was diagnosed as a malignant mixed tumor.
