The rapid rate at which these tumors normally grow means that they are rarely removed at a size of less than 1 centimeter.

The patient was being followed up in our department because of a basal cell carcinoma located on the tip of the nose; the tumor had been treated 2 years earlier with Mohs surgery and the site was reconstructed with a graft. A routine review detected a lesion that had gone unnoticed by the patient, an erythematous papule with a diameter of approximately 2<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm, located on the right nostril. Owing to a clinical suspicion of basal cell carcinoma a shave biopsy of the lesion was performed. Pathology identified a tumor located in the dermoepidermal junction and papillary dermis; the tumor consisted of clusters of monomorphic round basophilic cells with large vesicular nuclei, no visible nucleoli, and scattered signs of mitosis (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>). Immunohistochemistry showed the cells to be positive for pancytokeratin, chromogranin A, synaptophysin, and neuron-specific enolase, and negative for cytokeratin 20, thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF-1), and S-100 protein (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0010">Fig. 2</a>).</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0005"></elsevierMultimedia><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0010"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Once the tumor had been diagnosed as Merkel cell carcinoma, treatment was completed using Mohs surgery to ensure complete excision of the malignant lesion; the margin was negative after a single stage.

A punch biopsy showed a proliferation of monomorphic round cells with large vesicular nuclei, no nucleoli, and abundant mitosis in the deep dermis, almost reaching the hypodermis (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0015">Fig. 3</a>). This proliferation of cells was accompanied by an infiltrate of nontumorous lymphocytes.

The aggressive nature of the tumor and its low frequency make it difficult to establish a reliable and uniformly accepted management protocol.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> In general, the most appropriate treatment is considered to be surgery plus radiation therapy of the surgical site,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> accompanied, when applicable, by a study of the sentinel nodes or selective lymph node resection, sometimes with radiation therapy of the lymph node drainage area.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> However, the wide surgical excision recommended in the literature is not always possible, and no specific recommendations exist regarding ideal surgical margins. Mohs surgery is increasingly recommended for the treatment of Merkel cell carcinoma, but this modality is not available in many hospitals.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> As the tumor is known to be sensitive to radiation, the use of adjuvant radiation therapy after surgery would seem to be logical. However, in practice, we should always be reticent about treating a very small tumor on the face of a patient (as in our first case) with aggressive initial surgery plus radiation therapy. A study by Stokes et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> reviewed 346 cases of Merkel cell carcinoma, with known lymph node staging (either because the tumor had a sentinel node or because selective lymph node resection had been performed) in 213 cases. Those authors correlated lymph node staging with the size of the primary Merkel cell tumor and found that tumors measuring less than 1 centimeter were found in only 2 patients (4%) with lymph node involvement. Furthermore, lymph node involvement in those 2 patients was not detected by means of the sentinel node, as the enlarged nodes in these patients were clinically palpable. The authors therefore concluded that the sentinel node technique is probably not justified in Merkel cell tumors with a diameter of less than 1 centimeter. In our 2 cases, the therapeutic decision was made prior to the publication of that study. The notably small size of both tumors led us to discuss the most appropriate treatment in a tumor committee. We decided to perform a sentinel node study in the second patient but not in the first patient, and treated the tumors somewhat similarly to the way we manage cases of melanoma, that is, based on a pseudo-Breslow assessment of the tumors. Thus, the first case showed a Breslow depth of less than 1<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm, whereas the second tumor, which was almost in the hypodermis, had a considerably greater Breslow depth.</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The other reason we report these 2 cases is that the histologic appearance of the tumors led us to think about another aspect of Merkel cell carcinoma that is the subject of debate: its phylogeny. It has traditionally been accepted that this carcinoma originates in the Merkel cells, based on the similarities in immunohistochemistry and ultrastructure. However, this has never been conclusively proved the hypothesis currently gaining support is that the origin of these tumors is in pluripotent cells. In our first case, the tumor does appear to originate in the dermoepidermal junction and the origin could therefore be in the Merkel cells, which are found in the basement layer of the epidermis and sometimes in the hair follicles. In the second case, however, the tumor was found in the subcutaneous tissue and had no contact with adnexal epithelia, which makes the possibility that it originated in Merkel cells remote.</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In our first case, the absence of cytokeratin 20 in the tumor as shown by immunohistochemistry, is also a rare finding in Merkel carcinoma. Approximately 90% of cases of Merkel cell carcinomas are positive for cytokeratin 20, although a negative result for this marker in no way rules out a diagnosis of Merkel cell carcinoma. In fact, in the differential diagnosis between Merkel cell carcinoma and skin metastasis of a neuroendocrine tumor, negative staining for TTF-1 is considered to be more specific to Merkel cell carcinoma than a positive result for cytokeratin 20 because only 3% of systemic neuroendocrine tumors are negative for TTF-1 but Merkel cell carcinoma is practically never positive for this marker.</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In summary, we report 2 cases of very early Merkel cell carcinoma that, owing to the small size of the lesions, probably requires less aggressive treatment than most of these tumors.</p></span><span id="sec0025" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle">Conflicts of Interest</span><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors declare that they have no conflicts of interest.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:10 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xres97839" "titulo" => "Abstract" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec84995" "titulo" => "Keywords" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xres97838" "titulo" => "Resumen" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec84994" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0005" "titulo" => "Introduction" ] 5 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0010" "titulo" => "Case 1" ] 6 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0015" "titulo" => "Case 2" ] 7 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0020" "titulo" => "Discussion" ] 8 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0025" "titulo" => "Conflicts of Interest" ] 9 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "References" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "fechaRecibido" => "2011-07-11" "fechaAceptado" => "2011-10-29" "PalabrasClave" => array:2 [ "en" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Keywords" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec84995" "palabras" => array:5 [ 0 => "Merkel cell carcinoma" 1 => "Early" 2 => "Incipient" 3 => "Treatment" 4 => "Baby Merckel" ] ] ] "es" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec84994" "palabras" => array:5 [ 0 => "Tumor de Merkel" 1 => "Temprano" 2 => "Incipiente" 3 => "Tratamiento" 4 => "Baby Merckel" ] ] ] ] "tieneResumen" => true "resumen" => array:2 [ "en" => array:2 [ "titulo" => "Abstract" "resumen" => "<p id="spar0005" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">Merkel cell carcinoma is a malignant skin tumor with a poor prognosis that primarily affects photoexposed areas of elderly patients.
