“…9,14,17,18 The association of BCC with MCC is a rarer occurrence; however, it is documented. 14,17–19,21,22 Cerroni et al 18 reported a case presenting with MCC, SCC and BCC arising at the same site. Another case report 22 noted the combination of MCC with BCC in a young patient diagnosed with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia that is known to predispose towards actinic alterations.…”

“…A literature search revealed only 17 NEC including Merkel cell carcinomas that presented as abscesses [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] (Table II). Each was diagnosed by tissue biopsy; none by aspiration cytology.…”

“…Although histologically distinct, these neoplasms, except for breast carcinomas, usually arise in the skin or subcutaneous tissue, and therefore the localized pattern of extension may occur because of an high affinity for the skin. Histologically, epidermotropism can be found in porocarcinomas, Merkel cell carcinomas, and melanomas [25,27,28]. Future studies on cell surface molecules may elucidate the molecular basis for epidermotropism.…”
