Abstract

Skin adnexal carcinomas are rare skin cancer, developing from pilosebaceous, eccrine and apocrine unit. Treatment of localised tumours usually includes surgery and radiotherapy. Indications and modalities of radiotherapy depend on the pathological subtype with a lack of consensus for some histologies. This review summarises the place of radiotherapy in terms of indication, dose and fractionation, volumes to irradiate and discuss ongoing studies.

Keywords: Carcinome annexiel cutané; Dose and fractionation; Dose et fractionnement; Radiotherapy; Radiothérapie; Skin adnexal carcinoma.
