Abstract:

Nasopharyngeal cancer is a rare cancer in most part of the world, but commonly seen in natives of southern China, Southeast Asia, the Arctic, and the Middle East/North Africa. It is treated by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This affection is highly predisposed to nodal and distant metastasis. Still, cutaneous metastasis is rarely seen. A few solitary skin nodules are the most common form of appearance. However, cutaneous metastases from nasopharyngeal carcinoma are extremely rare and associated with a poor prognosis. Herein, we present a case of a 39-year-old woman with widespread nodular skin metastases from undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Keywords:

Metastasis; Skin; Undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma
