Deskripsi

Key Clinical Message Clinical presentation of leukemia cutis (LC) is polymorphic and can reveal a malignant hemopathy. More commonly described in cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), LC can also occur in case of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Abstract Leukemia cutis is a rare form of extramedullary feature of malignant hemopathy, seldom associated with CML. Its clinical presentation is pleiotropic and differential diagnosis is broad. It relies on clinical and typical histological and biomolecular concordance. Once confirmed, treatment is based on that of the primary condition. We present a case of a leukemia cutis revealing a relapse of a CML successfully treated by tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
