Generalized granuloma annulare associated with essential thrombocythemia

Abstract

Abstract The only myeloproliferative neoplasm associated with generalized granuloma annulare (GA) is chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). We present the first reported case of GA in a patient with essential thrombocythemia (ET). Future work investigating the shared pathophysiology of GA‐associated CML and ET may improve our understanding of GA pathophysiology and treatment.
