Cutaneous Adenosquamous Carcinoma of the Scalp With Intestinal Phenotype.

Cutaneous adenosquamous carcinoma is a mixed, squamous and glandular, rare malignant tumor of the skin characterized by a mixed, squamous, and glandular differentiation. Few cases of this tumor have been so far reported, and even fewer have been thoroughly studied by immunohistochemistry. We report here an exceptional case of cutaneous adenosquamous carcinoma which showed immunohistochemically features of intestinal differentiation, namely because of the expression of keratin 20 and CDX2, a marker of gastrointestinal tumors.
