==Overview==
Chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL) is an extremely rare myeloproliferative neoplasms with almost 200 cases in the world. While, most of the time this disease is asymptomatic, fatigue, weight loss, night sweats, bone pain, gout and pruritus are some of its symptoms. Splenomegaly is found in examination of most patients. 
==Historical Perspective==
* Chronic neutrophilic leukemia(CNL) was first presented by Tuohy, in a case of splenomegaly and neutrophilic leukocytosis, in 1920.<ref name="Tuohy1920">{{cite journal|last1=Tuohy|first1=E.
