Type: article

Abstract: In women, breast cancer is the second most common type of cancer diagnosed; and breast cancer is the most common malignancy to metastasize to skin, comprising 30% of all cases of cutaneous metastases Skin metastases result from skin infiltration due to cell proliferation from the initial tumor; The incidence of cutaneous metastases varies from 0.6 to 10.4% and can occur at any stage in the natural history of the disease. To date, a wide spectrum of cutaneous presentations have been described. We present our experience with the morphological patterns observed in our service during the last year.
