ABSTRACT
Leukemia cutis is the infiltration by neoplastic leukocytes or their precursors into the epidermis, dermis or the subcutis resulting in clinically identifiable cutaneous lesions. The diagnosis is of great value in cases where leukemia cutis aids in the diagnosis of leukemia. This has a poor prognosis and strongly correlates with additional signs of extramedullary involvement. A 27-year-old male patient, known case of AML-M3, presented with cutaneous nodules on both lower limb, which on biopsy proved to be leukemic deposits. Immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis and the patient was discharged with advice to continue chemotherapy.
