Case Report: Axillary Presentation of Merkel Cell Carcinoma: A Rare Case Report

2026-06-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, aggressive neuroendocrine skin malignancy. It is typically associated with sun-exposed areas in elderly, fair-skinned individuals. Pathogenesis involves either Merkel Cell Polyomavirus (MCPyV) integration or ultraviolet-induced genetic mutations. Due to rapid progression and high metastatic potential, early detection remains the cornerstone of clinical m...
