Abstract
Meibomian gland adenocarcinoma is a rare neoplasm which may be overlooked until it spreads into the orbit. We have experienced a case of meibomian gland adenocarcinoma which spread into the orbit, and performed orbital exenteration. Two months later, the patient had a recurrence at the superolateral margin of the orbit that surgically excised. The radiation therapy with total dose of 5000 rads over a period of one month was performed and the tumor mass was regressed. There was no evidence of recurrence at 12 months after radiation therapy.
