Cutaneous metastases of papillary renal cell carcinoma: A case report and review of the literature.

abstract：:Thirty cases of poorly differentiated carcinomas of the skin were examined for the expression of vimentin. All cases expressed cytokeratins; in addition, 12 cases were positive for vimentin. These were all non-reactive with antibodies to S100 protein, HMB45 and desmin. The finding of vimentin in poorly differentiated ...
