چکیده

CM of breast carcinoma in extremities is very rare, even though the overall incidence is approximately 25%. The commonest presentation is multiple none ulcerated nodules and rarely telangiectatic, erysepeloid, ‘en cuirasse’ carcinomas, alopecia neoplastica and zosteriform type [3, 4]. We recommend a high degree of suspicion for metastatic lesions in patients presenting with ipsilateral, upper limb cutaneous lesions following breast cancer surgery, although lymphangiosarcoma is commoner.
