A case of sebaceous carcinoma of the forehead of a 77-year-old male is reported and discussed and included in a review of all such cases reported in Japan. The patient had a round erosion on the right forehead that had caused itching for 15 months. An excisional biopsy of that lesion disclosed a malignancy and a subsequent wide excision was performed. The tumor recurred several times after excision and partially effective radiation therapy. The patient finally died of aspiration pneumonia 3 years after the first operation. An autopsy revealed that he had a recurrent sebaceous carcinoma extending to the periosteum of the right temporal bone and a solitary pulmonary metastasis.
