Histopathologic examina.tions of the cutaneous lesion reveaed a tumor cell showing glandular structure and multifocal tumor emboli within dilated lymphalics. and a few signetring cells in the dermis. We found that the retrograde studies revealed cholangiocarcinom. after confirmation of zosteriform cutaneous metastasis. He died eight months after the appearance of zosteriform cutaneous metastasis.
