Trunk's Papules, and If It was a Leukemia Cutis
Keyword(s):
Leukemia cutis characteristically demonstrates the infiltration of the skin by neoplastic leukocytes [1]. In clinical practice, the most common types seen are chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) often in patients who have a prior diagnosis of systemic leukemia [2]. However, cutaneous lesions may present as the primary manifestation of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in rare cases. It is generally synonymous of advanced disease and must encourage the search of other extramedullary sites involvement [3,4].
