Abstract

Around 4-5% of all patients with malignancy present with metastasis of unknown origin; the group of patients who have hemorrhagic metastases particularly involve malignant melanoma, renal cell carcinoma and choriocarcinoma. A case of malignant melanoma with disseminated hemorrhagic metastases to the brain, ovary and both breasts was presented. The literature was reviewed in relation to clinical, radiologic, histopathologic and immunohistochemical findings.

Özet

Özet: Malign hastaların yaklaşık %4-5'i primeri bilinmeyen metastatik hastalıkla başvurmaktadırlar; bunlar içinde hemorajik metastazlarla seyreden grup özellikle malign melanom, renal hücreli karsinom, koriokarsinom olgularını içerir. Burada intrakranial, över ve bilateral memede yaygın hemorajik metastazları olan bir malign melanom olgusu sunuldu. Klinik, radyolojik, histopatolojik ve immunhistokimyasal bulguların ışığında literatür gözden geçirildi.
