A 76-year-old man was sent to the dermatology department because of a red, sore belly button since 3 weeks. Based on histology, a CT-scan and increased Cancer Antigen 19-9 levels, this was interpreted as a pancreas carcinoma metastasis. This type of metastasis is also called a 'Sister Mary Joseph's nodule'.
