title: [The clinical characteristics of hematosarcoma with primary skin involvement].
abstract: As many as 90 patients suffering from hematosarcomas associated with primary skin lesions were examined. This patients' group did not include patients with mycosis fungoides or with Sezary's syndrome. The clinical picture, ways and stages of the spreading of skin hematosarcomas were reviewed. Damage to the internal organs outstripped lymph nodes injuries in 1/3 of the patients. Half of the patients followed up until their death died at the height of acute leukemia. The survival appeared relatively high: the median period turned out to be 51 months, whereas 33% of the patients survived for 10 and more years. The survival was influenced by the sex and age of the patients as well as by the histological disease variant.
