AB - Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm, originally described in 1995, is a very rare hematological
malignancy with an aggressive clinical course characterized by a rapid progression to systemic disease via
hematogenous dissemination. It represents around 0.5% of all hematologic cancers and typically affects
older males. Early recognition remains a challenge as it largely overlaps with other hematological
malignancies.
