pubmed:abstractText
A 15-month-old boy was well except for asymptomatic, erythematous, wheal-like papuloplaques, macules, and nodules on his face and four extremities. It was misdiagnosed by a pediatrician and treated as urticaria for six months. Later, he was sent to our hospital for evaluation of prolonged fever. Acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (M5) with leukemia cutis was diagnosed by results of hematologic examination and examination of a skin biopsy specimen. After one course of chemotherapy, all of the skin lesions completely resolved and had not recurred. Five months after acute nonlymphocytic leukemia was diagnosed, bone marrow relapse and central nervous system involvement were noted.
