Abstract

Abstract: Congenital leukemia is a rare disease that can become manifest soon after birth. Cutaneous involvement consists of red, brown, or purple papules and nodules, and confluent areas of purpura. The diagnosis is established by the presence of leukemic cells in biopsy specimens of bone marrow and involved skin, and by immunocytochemical characterization of these cells. We report a case of congenital monocytic leukemia with a normal karyotype, whose disease underwent temporary spontaneous regression.
