RESUMO
Background@#Skin metastases are rare yet crucial indicators of advanced disease. They can mimic various skin conditions, making them challenging to diagnose.@*Aims and Objectives@#To investigate the incidence rate of biopsy-confirmed cutaneous metastasis and explore the clinical presentation, workup, and diagnostic techniques for skin metastases@*Materials and Methods@#Local study involving comprehensive laboratory tests, pathological examination, and immunohistochemistry to identify primary tumors and confirm diagnoses. @*Results@#Nodules were the most common manifestation of skin metastases, particularly in breast carcinoma. The chest wall and abdomen were frequent sites of involvement. Pathological examination and immunohistochemistry played a critical role in confirming diagnoses, revealing various histopathologic patterns. Immunohistochemical markers assisted in determining tumor origin but required careful interpretation. Monitoring tumor behavior over time provided insights into nature and origins. @*Conclusion@#Comprehensive workups including laboratory testing, pathology, and immunohistochemistry are essential for accurate diagnosis and management of skin metastases. Careful monitoring of tumor behavior can provide valuable information about its nature and origins.
