Cutaneous metastasis is a phenomenon that results from a tumor spreading via lymphatic or vascular embolization, direct implant during surgery or skin involvement by contiguity. The primary malignant tumor that most commonly metastasizes to the skin in women is breast cancer, which can be manifested through papulonodular lesions, erysipeloid or sclerodermiform infiltration, en cuirasse. We report the case of a female patient, 78 years old, with papular, scaly and confluent lesions in the right breast for one year, progressing to edema and skin infiltration, reduction of breast volume and plaque en cuirasse, and similar lesions in the contralateral breast and abdomen for four months. The pathological diagnosis was invasive ductal breast carcinoma with Paget-like foci, epidermal skin metastases and lymphatic embolization.

Cutaneous metastasis from breast cancer has varied clinical presentations. Herein, we present the case of a middle-aged female with a large erythematous patch and an itchy bluish-red papular eruption on the left side of the breast. The patient had a history of ductal breast carcinoma at age 40. Histology from one of the red papules revealed an atrophic epidermis and emboli of carcinomatous cells in the dermal and subcutaneous blood vessels. The morphology of the tumor cells was similar to that of the primary ductal carcinoma of the breast. The diagnosis of telangiectatic metastatic breast cancer was reached.
