Merkel cell carcinoma is an aggressive tumor with nonspecific clinical features. The prognosis in general is worse than malignant melanoma. Local recurrence rates are high with one-third of patients having recurrence within one year of excision. The tumor invades blood vessels and lymphatics.

Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare cutaneous neoplasm most commonly affecting the head and neck of elderly white patients. Even with treatment, Merkel cell carcinoma has a strong propensity toward local recurrence, lymphatic spread, and distant metastasis. Because of its rarity and the subsequent lack of well-controlled clinical trials, no single standard

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, aggressive cutaneous cancer that predominately affects elderly Caucasians with fair skin and has a propensity for local recurrence and regional lymph node metastases. A variety of terms have been used to describe this tumor, including trabecular cell carcinoma, neuroendocrine or primary small cell carcinoma of the

Merkel cell carcinomas (MCCs) are rare cutaneous neuroendocrine neoplasms that are clinically aggressive due to a relatively high local, regional, and distant metastatic recurrence potential. They are found most commonly in Caucasian (94 %), elderly patients, with an average age at presentation being approximately 72 years.

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare but aggressive carcinoma of the skin, arising most commonly in sun-exposed sites of elderly patients. The diagnosis is based on characteristic histopathologic features. In 2008, the discovery of the Merkel cell polyomavirus led to intensified research into the viral pathogenesisis of MCC.

Journal of Computed Tomography, 1987
Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare malignant neoplasm of the skin which is locally invasive and frequently metastasizes to lymph nodes, liver, lungs, bone, and brain. Computed tomographic and pathologic findings in an elderly woman with Merkel cell carcinoma of the buttock and regional nodal metastasis are reported.

Merkel Cell Polyomavirus and Human Merkel Cell Carcinoma
2020Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) is the most recently discovered human oncogenic virus. MCPyV asymptomatically infects most of the human population. In the elderly and immunocompromised, however, it can cause a highly lethal form of human skin cancer called Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC).

The authors review 274 cases of Merkel's cells tumor reported in literature and present one case they personally observed. This kind of neoplasm develops itself inside the derma without involving the epidermidis and shows an aggressive biological behaviour.
