GIMENEZ ORTIGOZA, Víctor Daniel  e  VIDAL, Vladimir. Leukemia cutis: unusual presentation of a known disease. Rev. virtual Soc. Parag. Med. Int. [online]. 2019, vol.6, n.2, pp.71-75.  Epub 01-Set-2019. ISSN 2312-3893.  https://doi.org/10.18004/rvspmi/2312-3893/2019.06.02.71-075.

Leukemia is a neoplastic proliferation of progenitor cells of hematopoietic tissue origin and the infiltration of the neoplastic process into the skin is known as leukemia cutis.

We present the case of a 60-year-old woman with a three-week history of the appearance of erythematous-violet papules and plaques, initially treated as an allergic condition. Her final diagnosis was leukemia cutis secondary to acute myeloid leukemia, presenting a torpid clinical course.

Palavras-chave : acute myeloid leukemia; leukemic infiltration; leukemia cutis; anthracyclines..
