Metastatic adenocarcinoma of breast within a benign melanocytic nevus in the context of cutaneous breast metastatic disease.
Metastatic breast cancer of skin may be seen in a number of forms. It is rare to find it in association with a benign melanocytic nevus. We describe a patient with metastatic adenocarcinoma of breast within a benign melanocytic nevus and delineate this occurrence within the context of reviewing cutaneous breast metastatic disease.
