Keratotic vascular papules over the feet: a case of Waldenstrom's macroglobulinaemia-associated cutaneous macroglobulinosis
Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 11/03/09

The patient received five cycles of chemotherapy, resulting in nearly complete resolution of the skin lesions and systemic symptoms.
