In-transit metastasis of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma: report of two cases

Transit metastases include metastatic foci of the skin and subcutaneous tissue located between the tumor and the nearest regional lymph node. Although transit metastases have been described for malignant melanoma, some cases of transit metastases have also been reported among primary cutaneous non-m...

Description
Summary:	Transit metastases include metastatic foci of the skin and subcutaneous tissue located between the tumor and the nearest regional lymph node. Although transit metastases have been described for malignant melanoma, some cases of transit metastases have also been reported among primary cutaneous non-melanoma cancers. Treatment of patients with in-transit squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a multimodal approach for advanced staging imaging and therapy, including Mohs micrographic surgery, adjuvant radiation, and possibly sentinel lymph node biopsy and immunotherapy or chemotherapy. Here we report two cases of in-transit metastasis with primary cutaneous SCC.
