A 75 years old patient presented with a papular easily bleeding lesion of the lower lip that had been growing for two months. He was known for alcoholic cirrhosis complicated with hepatocellular carcinoma treated since one year. A working diagnostic hypothesis of benign vascular lesion was proposed. Microscopic examination showed a neoplastic dermal proliferation that had been fully excised, made of lobules segregated by thin fibrous septae. The neoplastic architecture was trabecular and delineating spaces forming pseudo-rosettes. Tumour cells were monomorphic, cuboidal or cylindric with abundant eosinophilic and granulous cytoplasm and centered by a lone nucleus that often contained a prominent nucleolus. Some spaces were filled with a brownish-greenish pigmented material. Immunohistochemical study showed that tumour cells were positive with the hepatocyte paraffin 1 antibody as well as cytokeratin 8 antibody. Chromogranin A and synaptophysin stainings were negative. Thus we concluded to a lip metastasis from the previously known hepatocellular carcinoma. Skin metastasis arise in around 3% of cases of hepatocellular carcinoma. They account for less than 1% of all cutaneous metastasis. Overall appearance of cutaneous metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma is associated with a poor prognosis and an aggravated risk of metastasis to other locations and organs and a median overall survival of less than 5 months. Since incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma is rising pathologists might face more frequently in years to come to cutaneous metastasis whose varied clinical presentations make a diagnostic challenge.
