Abstract |
|
|
Mesothelioma is a rare malignant neoplasm of the serosal membranes. Pleural mesothelioma is the most common form, comprising roughly three-quarters of all mesothelioma cases. Primary neoplasms can give rise to distant metastases in various organs in advanced stages of its course. Subcutaneous tissue is a rare metastatic site. We report a two case series of cutaneous metastases from malignant pleural mesothelioma.
