Research Notes on Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare (around 500 cases per year in the United States) skin cancer that develops from neuroendocrine cells (hormone-producing cells that resemble nerve cells in some ways) in the skin. They are thought to be caused in part by sun exposure. Unlike basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas, Merkel cell carcinomas often come back after treatment and spread to nearby lymph nodes. Also called neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin and trabecular cancer.
