Cutaneous metastasis from internal malignancies are rare with a reported incidence between 0.7% and 10%. The tumor, most commonly found to metastasize to skin, is generally considered to be breast cancer. We present a 53-year-old woman with a history of bilateral breast cancer who underwent FDG-PET/CT for restaging, which demonstrated isolated cutaneous and subcutaneous chest wall metastasis. Histopathologic verification confirmed invasive ductal carcinoma invasion of the dermis and the lymphatic vessels.
