Clinical review reports three distinct classes of cutaneous manifestations in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, highlighting the need to distinguish specific infiltrates from related dermatoses.
Cutaneous lesions arising during the course of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), generally of the B-cell type, are frequent. Three types of cutaneous manifestations must be differentiated: (1) specific lesions, (2) cutaneous manifestations closely related to the disease but without a leukemoid infiltrate and (3) associations with various dermatologic conditions. The various clinical features are discussed.
