This review covers rare extrapulmonary small cell carcinomas, emphasizing diagnosis and treatment. It highlights skin small cell carcinoma as a key diagnostic consideration.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Extrapulmonary small cell carcinomas are rare, with limited published cases.
  • Understanding their diagnosis and treatment is crucial for patient care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the recent literature on extrapulmonary small cell carcinomas.
  • To discuss differential diagnosis, including pleural masses and asbestos exposure.
  • To highlight small cell carcinoma of the skin.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of extrapulmonary small cell carcinomas.
  • Analysis of published case reports and larger patient series.
  • Inclusion of small cell carcinoma of the skin in the review.

Main Results:

  • Limited English literature available on extrapulmonary small cell carcinomas.
