Extracranial metastases from glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are rare, especially cutaneous metastasis. However, the metastatic mechanism of GBM remains unknown with no current consensus regarding the best therapeutic regimen. We report the clinical, imaging and pathological features of a case of a 47 years old man with primary glioblastoma; who 12 months after receiving a macroscopically total resection and adjacent radiotherapy, developed scalp metastasis and subsequent multiple skin metastasis. We also discuss the details of this case in comparison with the previously reported cases in literature in terms of clinical presentation, lesions’ site, management and survival.

Abstract Cutaneous metastasis from primary visceral malignancy is a relatively uncommon clinical entity, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.22% to 10% among various series. However, the presence of cutaneous metastasis as the first sign of a clinically silent visceral cancer is exceedingly rare. We describe here a case of an asymptomatic male patient who presented with a solitary scalp metastasis as the initial manifestation of an underlying small-cell lung cancer. Diagnostic evaluation revealed advanced disease. We conclude that the possibility of metastatic skin disease should always be considered in the differential diagnosis in patients with a history of smoking or lung cancer presenting with cutaneous nodules. Physicians should be aware of this rare clinical entity, and appropriate investigation should be arranged for early diagnosis and initiation of the appropriate treatment. The prognosis for most patients remains poor.

PurposeTo update the 1999 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) guideline on breast cancer follow-up and management in the adjuvant setting.MethodsAn ASCO Expert Panel reviewed pertinent information from the literature through March 2006. More weight was given to studies that tested a hypothesis directly relating testing to one of the primary outcomes in a randomized design.ResultsThe evidence supports regular history, physical examination, and mammography as the cornerstone of appropriate breast cancer follow-up. All patients should have a careful history and physical examination performed by a physician experienced in the surveillance of cancer patients and in breast examination. Examinations should be performed every 3 to 6 months for the first 3 years, every 6 to 12 months for years 4 and 5, and annually thereafter. For those who have undergone breast-conserving surgery, a post-treatment mammogram should be obtained 1 year after the initial mammogram and at least 6 months after completion of radiation therapy. Thereafter, unless otherwise indicated, a yearly mammographic evaluation should be performed. Patients at high risk for familial breast cancer syndromes should be referred for genetic counseling. The use of CBCs, chemistry panels, bone scans, chest radiographs, liver ultrasounds, computed tomography scans, [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose–positron emission tomography scanning, magnetic resonance imaging, or tumor markers (carcinoembryonic antigen, CA 15-3, and CA 27.29) is not recommended for routine breast cancer follow-up in an otherwise asymptomatic patient with no specific findings on clinical examination.ConclusionCareful history taking, physical examination, and regular mammography are recommended for appropriate detection of breast cancer recurrence.

Endometrial carcinoma is a very rare cause of cutaneous metastasis. The most frequent presentations of cutaneous metastasis are fast developing nodules or tumors, which are evidence of widespread dissemination in such patients. We report a case of scalp metastasis from an endometrial adenocarcinoma with a fatal prognosis.
