    Area of Science:

    • Hematology
    • Rheumatology
    • Oncology

    Context:

    • Leukemia can present with rheumatic complaints, mimicking joint diseases.
    • These symptoms arise from leukemic infiltrates, secondary bone changes, or joint hemorrhages.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the prevalence of rheumatic symptoms in leukemia patients.
    • To highlight the diagnostic challenges and implications of misdiagnosing leukemia as a rheumatic condition.

    Summary:

    • Rheumatic symptoms were observed in 21% of undifferentiated cell leukemia, 37% of chronic myelosis, and 12% of chronic lymphadenosis cases.
    • Leukotic infiltrates, secondary osteoporosis/osteosclerosis, and joint hemorrhages are common causes of these symptoms.
    • Misdiagnosis, particularly in undifferentiated cell leukemia, can delay critical treatment and worsen prognosis.

    Impact:

    • Emphasizes the importance of considering leukemia in patients with unexplained rheumatic symptoms.
    • Highlights the need for early and accurate diagnosis to improve leukemia treatment outcomes.
    • Underscores the potential for significant diagnostic errors in rheumatology and hematology referrals.
