Clinical characteristics of haematological malignancy patients diagnosed with leukaemia cutis: Experience of a single centre

We evaluated the clinical characteristics of patients with haematological malignancies at our centre who were diagnosed with leukaemia cutis (LC). In addition, we describe the spectrum of other skin lesions, including, secondary skin malignancies and nonspecific benign skin lesions in haematological malignancy patients.
