Abstract:
Cutaneous metastasis from prostate cancer is a rare manifestation, occurring in less than 1% of all cases of prostate cancer. Prostate cancer metastasis occurs most often in lymph nodes and bones. In this study, we present the case of a 55-year-old man with prostate adenocarcinoma and progressive papules on his left chest that developed shortly after androgen deprivation therapy was initiated. This case emphasizes the significance of considering cutaneous metastasis in the diagnostic differential when assessing patients with a history of cancer and the need to thoroughly evaluate these cases.

Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...
Papillary Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.

The papillary layer is made of loose, areolar connective tissue, which means the collagen...
