Abstract
Primary cutaneous mucinous carcinoma (PCMC) is an uncommon malignant adnexal tumor derived from sweat glands, often mimicking benign conditions. We report a rare case of mucinous carcinoma arising from the ear lobule in a 42-year-old male, clinically diagnosed as a keloid. Histopathology revealed mucinous (colloid) carcinoma. This case emphasizes the importance of routine histopathological examination for all excised skin lesions, irrespective of clinical diagnosis.
