Cutaneous Metastases From a Cribriform Adenocarcinoma of the Minor Salivary Glands.

Cutaneous metastases from solid tumor malignancies often emanate from breast, gastrointestinal, and lung tumors. Adenocarcinomas from minor salivary gland cancers may involve the skin contiguously but rarely as metastatic deposits. Furthermore, these metastases are usually locoregional and not distal. Recently, an uncommon neoplasm termed cribriform adenocarcinoma of the minor salivary glands has been described, and although it often spreads to cervical lymph nodes, metastatic involvement of the skin has not been reported.
