Zusammenfassung:Skin metastasis is a relatively rare complication of pulmonary carcinoma. The clinical features are varied and can present as sclerodermoid, bullous, erysipeloid, or alopecia, but they can also manifest as skin nodules, as in our case.

This case report aims to review and describe different findings in ultrasound, CT and pathology, to establish the diagnosis of pulmonary carcinoma manifested by skin metastasis.
