Cutaneous metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma: an unusual clinical presentation.

Abstract

Cutaneous metastases from gastric adenocarcinoma are uncommon. We report a 72-year-old man with gastric adenocarcinoma who developed a cutaneous metastasis on his left forearm, which clinically resembled carcinoma erysipelatoides but with distinct histopathological characteristics. We have not found any reported case with a similar location and histopathology.
