Leukemia cutis (LC) is an uncommon cutaneous manifestation of leukemia that involves the leukocytic infiltration of the skin. LC typically presents after a diagnosis of leukemia has been made but may rarely appear before confirmation of the disease. In this report, we describe the case of an 86-year-old male presenting with LC prior to a clear diagnosis of leukemia in the blood. This case highlights the importance of early recognition of LC lesions, to ensure earlier detection of the neoplasm, particularly when they present as the first sign of disease.
皮肤白血病（LC）是白血病一种不常见的皮肤表现，涉及皮肤的白细胞浸润。LC通常在白血病确诊后出现，但很少在疾病确诊前出现。在本报告中，我们描述了一例86岁男性在血液中白血病明确诊断之前出现LC的病例。该病例强调了早期识别LC病变的重要性，以确保更早地发现肿瘤，尤其是当它们作为疾病的首发症状出现时。
