A MALIGNANT MELANOMA METASTASIS WITH UNKNOWN PRIMARY; AN ATYPICAL CLINICAL PRESENTATION;

Abstract

Malignant melanoma metastasis with unknown primary is a rare clinical entity. A 42-year old man was admitted with the complaint of a rapidly growing mass in his right axillar region. In physical examination, a mass that 24-25 cm in diameter, irregular border, fusiform shaped and enlarged of outward from the axilla was detected. Mass excision and level I-II axillary dissection was performed. Malignant melanoma metastasis was found as result of histopathologic and immunohistochemical staining examination of this mass. This case has been reported by reason of its rare incidence and interesting clinical view.
