“…Jones described prostate skin metastases as bright red "bcrry-Iike" nodules simulating the appearance of hemangiomas, much like in our case [1]. Ronchese reported multiple prostatic nodules on the scalp simulating turban tumors [2]. Multiple red crusted nodules on the dorsa of the hands and forearms were described by Stahl et al [3].…”

Cutaneous metastases from adenocarcinoma of the prostate are uncommon despite prostate cancer being the second most common malignancy in the American male population. We report bright red "berry-like" cutaneous metastases in a dermatomal distribution from adenocarcinoma of the prostate. The prostate origin of the adenocarcinoma was confirmed by immunohistoehemieal staining for prostate-specific antigen.A 67 year old man had biopsy proven adenoeareinoma of the prostate diagnosed in August, 1985. At that time, the patient reeeived 1-125 implants and did well until 1987, when he developed urinary retention. A TURP revealed recurrent adenocareinoma and an orchiectomy was performed. In 1988 Flutamide treatment was initiated. In May of 1992. the patient once again developed urinary retention. A repeat biopsy in July 1992 revealed recurrent adenocarcinoma of the prostate. MRI revealed extensive epidural metastases at L3-L4. In October of 1992, the patient was hospitalized for lower extremity edema. A bone marrow biopsy revealed islands of malignant eells with large prominent eosinophilie nucleoli resembling prostate carcinoma. A bone scan showed extensive metastatic disease of the skeleton. Serum acid phosphatase was 4.4, hemoglobin 8.9, and hematocrit 27. A CAT-scan demonstrated skeletal metastases and invasion of the prostate gland into the right bladder base. Physical examination revealed pitting edema of the lower extremities bilaterally. There were 2-6 mm, glistening erythematous papules and nodules grouped on the right lower abdomen. Tbe lesions were discrete and well eircumseribed and no uleeration was present. DiscussionCorresponding author.

“…Prostate cancer rarely spreads to the skin, representing only 1% of all cutaneous metastasis 3 . In the literature, there are approximately 70 cases of cutaneous metastasis from prostate cancer, 4–47 of which most occur in the inguinal region. However, spread outside of the inguinal region occurs rarely, with only three previously reported cases to the chest wall 22,38,42 .…”

Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy in men in the United States. However, skin metastasis from prostate carcinoma is extremely uncommon. Here, we present a 75‐year‐old Caucasian man with a history of metastatic prostate cancer developing multiple subcutaneous, erythematous nodules over the left anterior chest over a 3‐month period. A fine needle aspiration of a subcutaneous nodule showed neoplastic cells consistent with metastatic prostate cancer. This case represents only the fourth reported case of cutaneous metastasis from prostate cancer to the chest wall and the ninth case outside the inguinal area.

“…Less frequently, the metastases involve other sites and may not have the typical nodular morphology (Table 1). 3,5,7–23 A telangiectatic cutaneous metastasis from prostatic carcinoma has been described only once in the literature. More frequently, metastases with this morphology arise from the breast, the parotid gland, or in association with apocrine carcinoma 3,24–27 …”
