Sweets Syndrome Arising in a Scar

摘要

Acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis (Sweet's syndrome) is an uncommon inflammatory cutaneous disorder. It presents with lesions which are tender, erythematous, edematous papules and under histologic examination show dense neutrophilic infiltration of the dermis. These lesions are often accompanied by leukocytosis and fever. This paper reports a unique case of acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis presenting as a Koebner response to a linear scar.
