A 20-year-old female presented with a 2-month history of progressively increasing ulceroproliferative growth over the back [Figure 1] along with multiple subcutaneous nodules. Physical examination revealed a large ulceroproliferative growth (15 cm × 15 cm) over the back. Baseline positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) showed bulky FDG avid (SUVmax- 6.41) mass in the right lower back region with supradiaphragmatic adenopathy along with hypermetabolic nodular deposits in the anterior abdominal wall, right posterior chest walls, right elbow region, and paravertebral regions [Figure 2].
