A patient living with HIV developed disseminated erythematous plaques and the biopsy was consistent with hematological neoplasm infiltration. Further evaluation revealed hepatosplenomegaly, anemia, thrombocytopenia, and leukocytosis, with 33% myeloblasts. Bone marrow assessment confirmed acute myelomonocytic leukemia, with NPM1 mutation. The patient was treated with a conventional induction regimen obtaining complete remission.
