title: Hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma metastatic to skin.
abstract: Multiple cutaneous nodules developed in a patient with squamous cell carcinoma of the hypopharynx. Biopsy revealed poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma metastatic to the skin. A keratin stain confirmed the presence of keratin in the cutaneous tumor cells. Cutaneous metastases from carcinoma of the hypopharynx are very rare.
