Various types of skin lesions have been described in connection with the cutaneous leukemias. Of these, the lymphosarcoma of Kundrat-Paltauf is one of the more common. During the past two years, two cases have come under my observation which showed some points of interest. The first patient presented multiple tumors which histologically bore a definite resemblance to mycosis fungoides, although clinically the lesions were typical of lymphosarcoma.
