    Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare and aggressive hematologic cancer often presenting with skin lesions.

  • 2

    The case study describes a 70-year-old male diagnosed with BPDCN who later developed gastric cardia adenocarcinoma during treatment.

  • 3

    Tumor-associated hemorrhage led to the prioritization of surgical intervention over ongoing chemotherapy for BPDCN.

  • 4

    A multidisciplinary approach was essential in managing the patient's complex condition, highlighting the need for timely investigations.

  • 5

    Immediate evaluation for secondary malignancies is crucial in BPDCN patients experiencing gastrointestinal symptoms during therapy.
