Leukemia Cutis in Skin of Color
Abstract:
The various presentations of many dermatologic conditions among various skin types are slowly being elucidated throughout the recent years. These differences present as an issue as it leads to delayed diagnosis, treatment, and poorer quality of life. Herein, we present the characteristics of leukemia cutis in a skin of color patient with diagnosed chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. Adjei S, Temiz LA, Miller AC, et al. Leukemia cutis in skin of color. J Drugs Dermatol. 2023;22(7):687-689. doi:10.36849/JDD.7020.

Disorders of Leukocytes
Leukopenia may result from bone marrow disorders, autoimmune diseases, and infectious diseases. For example, conditions such as multiple myeloma and aplastic anemia can impair the bone marrow's ability to produce adequate leukocytes.
