Abstract
A 79-year-old female was diagnosed with Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) and multiple cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) occurring on a background of pityriasis rubra pilaris. At the time of initial diagnosis and treatment for upper limb MCC, axillary nodal metastases were clinically evident. In the ensuing months, she developed multiple rapidly progressing SCC and eventually a left arm soft tissue deposit of metastatic MCC. Treatment involved multiple courses of fractionated radiotherapy. The salient clinical features and supporting evidence for this case are presented.
