AbstractMetastases 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. Subcutaneous metastases from squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus are extremely rare (less than 1% cases reported). A 55 year old male a known case of carcinoma oesophagus presented with one subcutaneous nodule over the left ala of nose, another was found incidentally on anterior abdominal wall below umblicus. FNAC from both nodules revealed metastatic squamous cell carcinoma.
