Leukemia Cutis

This is an infiltration that is caused by neoplastic leukocytes or they are the precursors in the dermis or subcutis which results in cutaneous lesions precursors. This is a skin disease, if the leukemia cutis remains the harbinger of the leukemic process it is known as aleukemic leukemia cutis. This will appear in the form of nodules that will be in single or multiples varying in size. This occurs in patients who have myeloid leukemia. This will be treated through chemotherapy which depends on the severity of the leukemia cutis. The treatment depends on the patient capability to tolerate the therapy.
