Abstract

Early identification is essential for improving survival rates since pancreatic cancer frequently has a poor prognosis [1]. Pancreatic cancer is known to spread quickly, yet it seldom spreads to the skin [1].Umbilical metastases frequently affect this region. Nonumbilical involvement is quite uncommon [2] to our knowledge, there haven’t been any additional examples of dermatomal or zosteriform cutaneous pancreatic cancer published in the literature. We describe a rare instance of recurrent pancreatic cancer that manifested as a unilateral, dermatomal, nonumbilical cutaneous metastasis.
