Paraneoplastic leukocytosis in solid tumors is associated with poor prognosis. While mild leukocytosis is common, paraneoplastic hyperleukocytosis is extremely rare. The case of a 73-year-old male diagnosed with an adenocarcinoma of the lung and a peak white blood cell count of 178,000/µl is reported. The patient succumbed to the disease after two cycles of immunochemotherapy only 2 months after first hospital admission. Specific treatment options are still under investigation and have not been reported in clinical use.
