Note that this is a rare complication of CLL! The original case study was from 2001, so treatment was well before the availability targeted CLL therapies and radiotherapy contributed to curing the blisters. The case study is also an example of how ChatGPT can be used to make such reports more understandable.

No, it's an example of a CLL skin infiltration. "Cutaneous CLL".
