Description
Hoffman, Sadrolashrafi, and Mobini report a 2026 case of prostate cancer that spread to the skin in a strange form. Such spread is rare and most often shows near the groin. Here it formed a scaly patch on the left shin of one patient.
Under the microscope the growth crept into the top skin layer and took on traits of a skin cancer, which could mislead a doctor. Tests for the usual prostate markers came back negative. The authors warn that a past history of prostate cancer, and of hormone treatment, should be asked about when such odd skin growths appear.
