山形大学皮膚科における内臓癌皮膚転移の統計的観察

抄録

We presented 43 cases who had skin metastases from internal cancer experienced for 22 years in our hospital. Among the 43 patients, 25 were males and 18 were females. The mean age was 60.1 years old. The most frequent primary tumors were lung cancer (15 cases) . Face and neck were the most common metastatic lesions. Clinically, nodules type were most frequent and histologically, adenoid type was the comonnest. The average time of the appearance of the skin lesions after detection of the primary tumors was 45.4 months. The average time of death after the appearence of skin metastasis was 10.0 months. It is important that we understand the character of skin metastases from internal cancer for evidence of primary tumors.
