Adrenocortical carcinoma with delayed cutaneous metastasis

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology
Elizabeth K Satter, David J Barnette

Abstract

Adrenal cortical carcinoma (ACC) is an uncommon and aggressive malignancy. Patients often have metastatic disease at initial presentation, with the most common sites being the liver, local lymph nodes, lungs, peritoneum and bone. Despite a high frequency of metastases, there are only isolated reports of ACC that have metastasized to the skin. Herein, we report a case of an 82-year-old woman who presented with a cyst-like lesion on her back, which on biopsy proved to be ACC metastatic from a primary tumor diagnosed 30 years previously.
