Cutaneous B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia resembling a granulomatous rosacea.
B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is a low-grade lymphoproliferative disease. Cutaneous involvement of B-CLL is limited and, in most cases, it represents non-specific manifestations related to an impaired immune system. Leukemic skin infiltrates (leukemia cutis) occur in 4-20% of patients. Herein we report the case of a 65-year-old woman with B-CLL presenting with papular, nodular, an...
متن کاملCutaneous B-cell neoplasms mimicking granulomatous rosacea or rhinophyma.

OBSERVATIONS We described 12 patients with B-cell lymphoproliferative neoplasms presenting with a facial eruption clinically mimicking rosacea or rhinophyma. Eleven patients were women; ages ranged f...
متن کاملT-cell CD38 expression in B-chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (B-CLL) is a heterogeneous disease with some patients having an indolent course never needs treatment, while others having rapidly progressive one requires intensive treatment. In recent decades, numerous prognostic markers, such as immunoglobulin variable region heavy-chain (IgVH) mutational status, ZAP-70 and the expression of CD38 on leukaemic cells were ...

A 67 year old man was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) in 1999. He was also known to have hypogammaglobulinaemia and bronchiectasis.

متن کاملStem cell transplantation for chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
Early results of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) suggested a significant proportion of patients remained disease-free for years, raising the possibility of cure. More recent studies have shown no evidence of a plateau in the survival curves indicating that, at best, ASCT may only prolong disease-free survival. Problems remain over progenitor ce...
