##submission.abstract##

Sebaceous carcinoma is a rare aggressive malignant tumor derived from the adnexal epithelium of sebaceous glands. Sebaceous carcinomas are gener­ally divided as ocular or extraocular locations. Very few cases of extra ocular sebaceous carcinomas have been reported till date.  Hereby, we report a 62-year-old female diagnosed with sebaceous carcinoma on the gluteal region with recurrence, and was treated surgically with wide local excision. The extra-ocular site is rare and high degree of suspicion is required and sebaceous carcinoma should be considered as one of the differential diagnosis.
