Abstract:

The authors describe a rare case of lung cancer metastasing to the skin in a 66 year-old man. Nodal and nodular elements turned out to be the earliest signs of the asymptomatic oncological disease. The patient died 4 months after the appearance of skin metastases. The results of autopsy confirmed the diagnosis of lung cancer.
