We present a case of carcinoma en cuirasse as a presentation of advanced lobular breast carcinoma. On further investigation, she was found to have metastasis to her liver and bone. We report this case to highlight the phenomenon of cutaneous metastasis. It is important to consider this diagnosis as an initial manifestation of breast cancer, but rarely, it can also be associated with other adenocarcinomas, for example, carcinoma of lung, kidney or gastrointestinal tract.
我们报告一例以铠甲样癌表现的晚期小叶性乳腺癌病例。进一步检查发现，她有肝和骨转移。我们报告此病例以突出皮肤转移现象。将这种诊断视为乳腺癌的初始表现很重要，但很少见的是，它也可能与其他腺癌相关，例如肺癌、肾癌或胃肠道癌。
