Abstract
Cutaneous metastases from internal malignancies are very uncommon. [corrected] We describe an extremely rare case of multiple cutaneous metastases from esophageal adenocarcinoma. A month before the patient came to us, he had presented to the ER for evaluation of skin lesions and was sent home on a 1-week course of oral antibiotics. He later presented with dysphagia and was diagnosed with esophageal adenocarcinoma and biopsy of the skin lesions revealed metastases. This report stresses the importance that newly appearing skin lesions may be the first presentation of esophageal carcinoma.
