Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Primary high-grade lacrimal gland (LG) mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is a rare condition that presents diagnostic and treatment challenges. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the diagnosis, treatment, and mutational landscape of high-grade LG MEC. METHODS: We reviewed clinical symptoms, radiological images, treatment, prognosis, histopathology, and mutational landscape of 20 patients with...
