Abstract

Sweet syndrome (SS), or acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis,was first introduced by Dr. Robert Douglas Sweet1 in 1964.The main features of the syndrome include fever, leukocytosis of neutrophilic predominance in the peripheral blood, and skin lesions that exhibit neutrophilic infiltration of the dermis. The skin lesions usually take the form of erythematous papules, plaques, or nodules that are distributed mainly in the upper extremities and trunk, head, and neck.
