Abstract:
We present the first case of inguinal Merkel cell carcinoma of unknown primary origin in a patient with vulvar Paget's disease. Correlation with immune suppression of both entities warrants further investigation. Additionally, this case highlights the value of ultrasound scanning in the detection of inguinal metastasis.
