유방암 환자에서 발생한 혈관 확장성 피부전이 = A Case of Telangiectatic Cutaneous Metastasis from Carcinoma of the Breast

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The incidence of cutaneous metastases of primary tumor has been reported to be rare, as compared with metastasis of other internal organ. Carcinoma of the breast is most common cause of cutaneous metastasis in women. We report here on a case of telangiectactic metastatic breast carcinoma in a 65-year-old female who had violaceous plaques and vesicles over the right side of the neck. Histopathological examinations of the cutaneous lesion revealed aggregations of tumor cells within the dilated blood vessels in the dermis. (Korean J Dermatol 2009;47(12):1375∼1378)
