Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an uncommon aggressive neuroendocrine tumor of the skin that classically presents on chronic sun-damaged skin as a skin-colored, red or violaceous, firm and nontender papule or nodule with a smooth and shiny surface. Ulcerations can be observed very seldom and only in very advanced lesions. We present a unique case of a MCC presenting with two unusual clinical features: The Telangiectatic surface and the pedunculated aspect.
默克尔细胞癌（MCC）是一种罕见的侵袭性皮肤神经内分泌肿瘤，典型表现为出现在长期受阳光损伤的皮肤上，为肤色、红色或紫红色、质地硬且无压痛的丘疹或结节，表面光滑有光泽。溃疡非常少见，仅见于非常晚期的病变。我们报告一例具有两个不寻常临床特征的默克尔细胞癌病例：毛细血管扩张表面和带蒂外观。
