“…Monocytosis in blood and bone marrow suggested possible CMML but absolute blood monocyte count was only 0.544 × 10 9 /l, below the minimum of 1.0 × 10 9 /l required by FAB criteria for diagnosis of CMML [10]. "RA with monocytosis" has been proposed for cases characterized by predominant erythroid dysplasia with leukopenia and relative or absolute monocytosis [11].…”

A case of leukemia cutis (LC) of monocytic lineage in a patient with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is presented. Cutaneous infiltrates were recognized concurrent with diagnosis of refractory anemia (RA) with monocytosis. Skin infiltrates subsequently spontaneously regressed although MDS progressed with increasing monocytosis, anemia, and thrombocytopenia. Death occurred 6 months after diagnosis with evolution of acute monoblastic leukemia complicated by sepsis. This case supports previous observations of poor prognosis associated with leukemia cutis. LC associated with MDS is reviewed including the role of monocytes.
