A Unique Case of Diffuse Metastatic Neuroendocrine Cancer with Subcutaneous Nodules on 18-F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computer Assisted Tomography
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) account for 8-10% of cases of carcinomas of unknown primary. Most of these cases are poorly differentiated with metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis. However, cutaneous metastatic presentation is rare. We present an interesting case of a 74-year-old woman presenti...
