Abstract:
A patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and essential thrombocythemia is described. The two disorders were diagnosed synchronously. This association was not treatment related. Review of the literature revealed an additional 9 case reports of CLL associated with myeloproliferative disorders, but none with essential thrombocythemia.
