description Shell breast cancer is one of the clinical forms of presentation of cutaneous metastases of breast cancer. It is rare, especially in males. The case of a 74-year-old male patient with black skin color, with a history of diabetes and high blood pressure, who attended a provincial mastology consultation for a few months of mild pain and pruritic lesions on his neck, is presented the right breast. In addition to other examinations, an excisional biopsy of a small fragment of the lesion was performed with a paraffin study, which reported cutaneous metastasis of a shell breast carcinoma according to its clinical presentation. The case is shown because no publication was found in the province of Cienfuegos or in the country of a male case, which is why the publication of this report is considered of interest to medical personnel.
