Abstract
Cutaneous metastasis from visceral tumors is a rare entity with a reported incidence between 0.3% and 9.8%. Cutaneous metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma is also rare and usually presents in men, as nodules over the abdomen. We present a case of 35 year old man who is a known case of primary diffuse infiltrating signet ring cell carcinoma stomach presenting with surprising clinicopathological manifestation as cutaneous and intermuscular plane metastatic deposits on arm, forearm and lower abdomen. FNAC was done from all the swellings and show metastasis deposits of adenocarcinoma which were PAS stain positive. Although such sites for metastatic deposits of signet cell carcinoma stomach is very rare but molecular genetics and hematological spreads treasure us with its unexpected outcomes. So, clinician as well as pathologist must aware to manage these advanced end stage tumor manifestation as early as possible.
