Abstract:
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a complex and aggressive malignancy that occurs due to genetic mutations and subsequent stem cell overproduction. We report a case of a patient with AML and a highly fatal, uncommon TP53 mutation who developed dermatologic manifestations. This report serves to highlight the importance of dermatologic findings in underlying leukemia and educate healthcare providers on the diagnosis and treatment of a rare TP53 mutation in AML.
