Abstract

Telangiectatic metastatic breast carcinoma preceded by en cuirasse metastatic breast carcinoma

A Keloidal Scar Post Surgical and Chemo-Radio Therapy for Breast Cancer

“…Histologically, as seen in similar cases reported by Ho (2008) and Lee (2004), it is characterized by a dense stromal fibrosis and reduced vascularity. An interstitial infiltrate of tumour cells in single rows is often seen also known as "Indian filing".…”

“…They are carcinoma erysipelatoids, telangiectactic metastatic carcinoma, nodular metastatic carcinoma, Paget's disease, alopecia neoplastica, carcinoma of the inframammary crease, metastatic mammary carcinoma of the eyelid with histiocytoid histology and carcinoma en cuirasse as reported in a papers by Mahore (2010), Lahore (2010), Ho (2008) and Lee (2004). A previous study by Mordenti (2000), showed the prevalence of each type of skin metastasis with nodular types being commonest (80%).…”

Telangiectatic cutaneous metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma

“…3,4 Telangiectatic cutaneous metastasis from an internal malignancy may manifest clinically as telangiectasia, erythematous patches, purpuric papules, or lymphangioma circumscriptumelike pseudovesicles. 1 Our patient had prominent dilated vessels associated with erythematous patches on the trunk, and tumor emboli were present in dilated vascular spaces in the papillary dermis. The pathogenesis of telangiectatic metastasis remains unclear, but it probably results from spread in the superficial lymphatics and dermal vessels.…”

Lymphangioma circumscriptum-like presentation of breast carcinoma

“…[3,4] Traditionally, CM have often been regarded as a sign of advanced and disseminated disease. Recently, Hu et al showed that there are differences in survival for CM arising from different internal malignancies, with breast cancer patients having a relatively better prognosis compared with other cancers.…”
