A novel case of NKX3.1-positive metastatic cutaneous prostate cancer.

We present an 87-year-old man previously diagnosed with prostate cancer treated with brachytherapy, who presented with a metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma of the scalp mimicking a basal cell carcinoma. Herein, we present a patient with an NKX 3.1 positive cutaneous metastatic prostate carcinoma identified through NKX3.1 stain rather than the typical PSA/PSAP stain.
