Cutaneous Metastasis from Lung Adenocarcinoma

Cutaneous metastases are rare and often portend the aggressive malignancy and poor prognosis. We report a case of a 62-year-old man with a rapidly growing nodule on the left back for 2 months. The patient was diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma shortly before the skin lesion presented. Physical exami...

description Cutaneous metastases are rare and often portend the aggressive malignancy and poor prognosis. We report a case of a 62-year-old man with a rapidly growing nodule on the left back for 2 months. The patient was diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma shortly before the skin lesion presented. Physical examination showed a dome-shaped purplish red nodule, with ulceration and hemorrhagic crust. Excision of the skin lesion was performed, and the histopathology showed tumor cells infiltrate with immunohistochemistry (TTF-1+CK7+CD20–) favoring primary lung adenocarcinoma.
