Incidental Merkel cell carcinoma in a cutaneous horn: a case report.

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare cutaneous neuroendocrine malignancy, which usually presents as an asymptomatic, rapidly growing, firm nodule on sun-damaged skin. We present a 93-year-old female who presented with a "cutaneous horn" on the face. On excision, histologic examination revealed a combined squamous cell carcinoma in situ with underlying MCC.
