From a clinical point of view, the most common presentations of cutaneous metastatic disease are papules and nodules. However, a wide morphological spectrum of lesions has been described, including erythematous patches or plaques, inflammatory erysipelas-like lesions, diffuse sclerodermiform lesions with induration of the skin, telangiectatic papulovesicles, purpuric plaques mimicking vasculitis, and alopecia areata like scalp lesions. The so-called zosteriform pattern has been described to be in few cases and to the best of our knowledge has never been described associated with a metastasis of a nasopharyngeal carcinoma. This case highlights the relevance of including cutaneous metastases in the differential diagnosis of patients with nonhealing herpes zoster-like lesions, especially in those with underlying neoplasm recently diagnosed.

Proximal Myopathy

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a multisystemic small-vessel vasculitic disease that can present with positive MPO-P-ANCA (myeloperoxidase–perinuclear–anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody). It is a rare condition that is difficult to diagnose. We present the case of a 64-year-old man with late-onset adult asthma and treated nasopharyngeal carcinoma who initially presented to us with proximal myopathy. Thereafter, he developed a constellation of fleeting symptoms which included rhinosinusitis, mononeuritis multiplex, skin vasculitis and arthritis. Blood investigations showed that he had eosinophilia, and skin biopsy demonstrated dermal vasculitis with eosinophils. He was found to be MPO-C-ANCA positive, and although initially thought to have granulomatosis with polyangiitis, the diagnosis was later revised to EGPA. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges with atypical presentations of EGPA and also presents a rare case of positive MPO-C-ANCA that has never been described in EGPA before.

Background Gastric cancer is rare during pregnancy and often diagnosed at a later stage due to overlapping symptoms of pregnancy. Breast metastasis of gastric cancer is another uncommon entity. We present a rare case of breast metastasis of gastric cancer during pregnancy. Case report A 26-year-old female was diagnosed with gastric cancer at 14 weeks of gestation and underwent total gastrectomy. She rejected adjuvant chemotherapy and continued pregnancy without any follow-up. Cancer recurred in bilateral breasts at 34th week of gestation mimicking primary inflammatory breast cancer. Management and outcome It was difficult to diagnose breast metastasis during pregnancy because of overlapping pregnancy symptoms. Following an unresponsive period to antibiotherapy, a fine needle biopsy on breast was performed and signet cell adenocarcinoma metastasis was determined. We started chemotherapy after delivery. There was a near complete response after first line of chemotherapy. Unfortunately, cancer was relapsed within three months and we started second-line chemotherapy. Discussion To our knowledge, this is the fourth case reported in medical literature of gastric cancer presented with breast metastasis during pregnancy. We will try to draw attention to diagnosis, treatment and different presentation of gastric cancer during pregnancy with review of the literature.
