Abstract

Metastases to skin from primary internal malignancies are rare with the incidence ranging from 0.7% to 10%.Cutaneous metastasis are frequently found in melanoma, breast cancer, or mucosal cancers of the head and neck. The reported incidence of subcutaneous metastases from squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus is less than 1%. We report here a 55 year old male with carcinoma oesophagus presented with one subcutaneous nodule over the tip of nose and another on anterior abdominal wall below umblicus. Cytology from both nodules revealed metastatic squamous cell carcinoma.

Keywords: Esophagus; Subcutaneous Metastasis; Squamous Cell Carcinoma.
