There are few reported cases of cutaneous metastases of esophageal carcinoma, especially of esophageal adenocarcinoma, but reports may become more common as the incidence of esophageal cancer increases. We present a case of a 67-year-old man with metastatic esophageal cancer in the scalp. Clinical and histologic findings are discussed, and recommendations for clinicians are suggested.
