Abstract

Zosteriform metastasis is a rare form of tumor spread to the skin that most often arises from an internal carcinoma or a hematologic malignancy. We describe a 29-year-old woman with malignant melanoma of the back in whom zosteriform metastases developed along the fifth thoracic dermatome.
