Adenocarcinoma of Moll is an unusual but dangerous tumor that rarely affects apocrine palpebral glands. In this work, we report an atypical presentation of palpebral Moll adenocarcinoma and discuss the anatomopathological diagnostic criteria. As its prognosis is poor owing to its capacity to invade other tissues, we emphasize the importance of performing an extension study on this patient. Expanding the sample size of reported tumors will be useful in defining their clinical characteristics and establishing guidelines for follow-up and treatment. Additionally, we present a review of the cases reported in the literature.
