Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common type of leukemia in adults. Skin involvement by malignant CLL cells, or leukemia cutis (LC), typically presents as localized or generalized papulonodular lesions. Here we report a series of five patients with CLL who presented with perniosis-like skin findings on the ears, nose, and/or digits. Histopathologic analysis of seven skin specimens from these five patients showed a relatively dense, nodular to diffuse, pan-dermal infiltrate of monomorphic lymphocytes, compatible with CLL. The typical histopathologic findings of perniosis, such as a robust perivascular and peri-eccrine infiltrate, dermal edema, and interface change, were absent. In one patient, the skin findings heralded the diagnosis of CLL, and in most patients the skin lesions tended to improve with systemic treatment of the patient's underlying CLL. We suggest the term 'leukemic pernio' for cases of leukemia cutis that clinically mimic perniosis.

Dermatophytosis is a commonly encountered superficial fungal infection with an affinity for keratin-rich structures, such as skin, hair, and nails. The recently emerging recalcitrant dermatophytosis is a recurrent, relapsing, chronic or persistent disease, which has a significant impact on the social, emotional and financial aspects of a patient's life. Trichophyton indotineae, a newly identified species, unlike its predecessor, has become resistant to conventional therapies. This review highlights the shift of this commonly encountered skin disease from an easily manageable clinical entity to an emerging resistant epidemic. We also discuss why dermatophytosis is being labelled as "designated fungal threat".
