Numerous cells with very large and irregular nuclei (“monster” cells) have not hitherto been reported in desmoplastic melanoma (DM). Their prognostic significance in melanomas is a matter of debate, although some authors have associated them with more aggressive tumor behavior. We report a mixed DM on the scalp of an 88-year-old woman imitating an atypical fibroxanthoma. Tumor cells stained positive for SOX10, S100, and cyclin D1; BRAF mutation status was negative, and fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis showed copy number gains in 11q13 (cyclin D1) and 6p25 (RREB1), and loss in 6q23 (MYB). Cyclin D1 amplification is associated with poor prognosis in melanoma.

The authors report an unusual case of a 67-year-old man without urinary symptoms, with facial neoplasm. After biopsy, histological findings revealed a clear cell metastasis from renal carcinoma. Intravenous pyelography plus abdominal and brain CT scan were therefore performed, revealing renal cancer with widespread metastasis, making surgery impossible. Given the peculiarity of this case, the authors also give data from international literature which show that this type of first manifestation of renal carcinoma is very uncommon.
