1 Cutaneous metastases Thaddeus Mully University of California, San Francisco Professor, Departments of Pathology and Dermatology

2 DISCLOSURE OF RELATIONSHIPS WITH INDUSTRY Thaddeus Mully Course C005 Essential Dermatopathology: What You Need to Know for Clinical Practice: Neoplastic DISCLOSURES I do not have any relevant relationships with industry.

3 Introduction Cutaneous metastases are uncommonly encountered and present a diagnostic challenge for clinicians and pathologists alike They may not be suspected and can clinically and histopathologically mimic other entities Communication with the submitting clinician is often necessary to obtain relevant clinical history as this is a big diagnosis Histopathologic and immunohistochemical results can be helpful in suggesting a primary source, but further work up is always necessary

4 General principles (Clinical) The overall incidence of cutaneous metastasis from a variety of internal malignancies is about 2-12% Rarely (< 1%) is skin metastasis the presenting sign of internal malignancy Poor prognosis; mean survival following a cutaneous metastasis is 7.5 months By definition these are all late stage patients

5 General principles (Clinical) In adults the most common primary sources are: Breast CA, melanoma, head and neck SCC, lung CA, colorectal CA, renal CA In women, most common primary sources are: Breast (69%), large intestine (9%), melanoma (5%) and ovary (4%) In men, most common primary sources are: Lung (24%), large intestine (19%), melanoma (13%), squamous cell CA of oral cavity (12%), kidney (6%) In neonates the most common sources are neuroblastoma and less commonly rhabdomyosarcoma

6 Clinical presentation Most common is solitary or small grouped nodule(s), firm, often rapidly growing Erythematous patch (inflammatory carcinoma, carcinoma erysipeloides) Firm indurated plaque (carcinoma en cuirasse) Grouped hemorrhagic papules (carcinoma telangiectoides)

7 General principles (Clinical) Often localize to same general vicinity as primary malignancy: Lung primary: Chest wall and proximal upper extremities GI and GU primaries: Abdominal wall Oral cavity and esophageal primaries: Head and neck Bladder and prostate: Abdominal wall or penis Sometimes develop at site of scars from prior surgeries, prior procedures (thoracentesis, paracentesis) and colostomy sites Scalp metastases are usually from breast, lung, or renal primaries

8 Sister Mary Joseph Nodule (umbilical met) Most often metastatic adenoca from stomach, large bowel, and less often ovary, pancreas, urinary bladder, endometrium

9 Histopathologic patterns Large nodular aggregate(s) centered in the dermis, without connection to the overlying epidermis; rare epidermotropic met seen with melanoma, prostate, and some squamous cell CA s Small nests, strands, or single cells arranged interstitially between collagen bundles; sometimes in a single file pattern (especially for breast CA) Lymphatic and vascular invasion

15 Breast (Mammary) Small nests, strands, or single neoplastic cells arranged interstitially between collagen bundles, often in a single file pattern

16 Breast (Mammary) Neoplastic cells filling lymph-vascular spaces; Inflammatory CA ; carcinoma erysipeloides

17 D2-40

18 Breast (Mammary) Small nests and strands of neoplastic cells with surrounding desmoplasia and fibrosis; carcinoma en cuirasse

19 Breast (Mammary) Scalp hair follicles overrun by nests of poorly differentiated breast CA; alopecia neoplastica

20 Breast (Mammary) Cytokeratin-7 Positive and Cytokeratin-20 Negative (CK7+/CK20 ) CAM5.2 + (low molecular weight cytokeratin) CEA + GCDFP-15 + (Gross cystic disease fluid protein) Mammaglobin + ER and PR variably + (NOT useful as a breast marker) Rarely S100 + with melanin pigment (mimic of melanoma)
