title: Sarcoidosis preceding chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. Report of two cases.
abstract: We report 2 patients who had sarcoidosis with skin involvement associated with bilateral anterior uveitis. During the follow-up, they developed chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. This association is of particular interest as sarcoidosis and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia may be considered as disorders of a common monocyte-macrophage cell lineage.
