A report from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City discusses the rare occurrence of cutaneous metastases in pancreatic cancer patients. The study examined the clinical, genomic, and other characteristics of patients with pancreatic cancer and cutaneous metastases. The research found that most patients had stage IV disease at diagnosis, with the primary tumor most commonly located in the tail of the pancreas. The most common site of cutaneous metastasis was the abdomen, with umbilical lesions occurring in the majority of abdominal lesions. The median overall survival from cutaneous metastasis diagnosis was 11.4 months. The study also identified genetic variants in some patients. The research concludes that cutaneous metastases can be categorized as umbilical or non-umbilical metastases. [Extracted from the article]
