  • Title: [Pyoderma gangrenosum and chronic myeloïd leukemia. Two new cases (author's transl)].
    Author: Chevrant-Breton J, Verger JP, Queffeulou F, Leblay R.
    Journal: Sem Hop; ; 56(17-18):897-9. PubMed ID: 6248977.
    Abstract:
    Two new cases of pyoderma gangrenosum with chronic myeloid leukemia are described and added to three others of the literature. Pyoderma gangrenosum is often bullous, painful and progresses quickly. It seems to have a bad prognosis in myeloid leukemia as in polycythemia vera, in which it appears lately as an evolution to myelofibrosis or acute leukemia transformation. Chemotactic disorders of polynuclear may be the main etiological factor in these cases.
