Metastasis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) to the skin of this region is extremely rare and reported in 1-2% of cases. The cutaneous metastases of head and neck cancers often present as multiple papulonodular lesions; however, sporadic cases of solitary or multiple keratoacanthoma-like lesions are reported. We describe a rare case of cutaneous metastases of laryngeal SCC presenting as multiple eruptive keratoacanthoma-like lesions with concomitant scrofuloderma in an area of previous radiotherapy.
