A Rare Case of AML Presenting as Leukocytoclastic Vasculitis

Medhavi Rajput, Iuliia Kovalenko, and Sudhamshi Toom

Cutaneous manifestations are commonly observed in the clinical course of Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML). In 10% to 15% of cases, skin eruptions arise from leukemic skin infiltration and are known as leukemia cutis. Nonspecific cutaneous lesions caused by non-leukemic skin reactions, such as vasculitis, are also described in the literature. Here we present a rare case of patient who presented to the clinic with recent diagnosis of leukocytoclastic vasculitis and new onset neutropenia after she was treated with antibiotics for her skin condition.
