Abstract
Sweet's syndrome (SS) is the prototype of neutrophilic dermatosis, a group of skin diseases reactive in nature and characterized histopathologically by the presence of an infiltrate of neutrophils. It is a marker of various internal diseases, among which are infections, inflammatory bowel disease, autoimmune connectivopathies and various malignancies, especially those of hematologic origin. We present a case of a 39 year old woman, diagnosed with SS after clinical suspicion and biopsy of skin lesions. Key wOrds. Neutrophilic dermatosis, Sweet’s syndrome
