This condition was first described in 1913 by Reschad and Schilling-Torgau,1 who reported a case of this disease involving the skin observed in Arning's clinic. Monocytic leukemia is characterized by an increase of monocytes in the blood but is indistinguishable clinically from the other leukemias. Both specific and nonspecific cutaneous lesions are commonly associated with this disease.

Reticulo-endotheliosis has also been the subject of much study by hematologists, but the recent advances in the hematologic aspect of this condition have not received sufficient attention in dermatologic literature.
