Abstract
Cutaneous metastasis of internal malignancy is an uncommon but not rare phenomenon. Renal cell carcinoma is a visceral malignancy that rarely metastasizes to the skin and typically presents as a solitary red, purple nodule when it does. We describe a case of metastatic renal cell carcinoma to the skin presenting as a zosteriform eruption.
