Perineural spread of squamous cell carcinoma: From skin to skin through the brachial plexus
Original language description
Perineural spread is an alternative to the more common hematogenous or lymphogenous form of tumor spread. Perineural spread is most frequently reported in head and neck cancers with only a few cases in upper limb nerves. We present a patient with a history of squamous cell carcinoma in the left arm who developed a left brachial plexopathy and subsequently other histologically similar lesions in the soft tissues and skin of the left shoulder. We hypothesize that all of the findings including the secondary lesions could be explained anatomically as perineural spread from the original site along small and major branches of the upper arm nerves to a distant site. Our theory is supported by high resolution imaging. Although perineural spread is frequently reported in squamous cell carcinoma, it has not been described as the mechanism for spread to skin at a distant site.
