We report the onset of an unusual blistering eruption following a diagnosis of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL). The histology consistently showed eosinophilic spongiosis, but the diagnosis of bullous pemphigoid was only confirmed after 13 years by repeated immunofluorescence studies. The
## Abstract Genetic polymorphisms in DNA repair genes can affect the risk of developing different forms of cancer. Therefore, we have studied the putative association of seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in five DNA repair genes with the incidence of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). W
