myelodysplastic syndrome, Sweet syndromeAbstract
Sweet’s syndrome or acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis is a systemic disease of unknown etiology characterized by sudden onset of painful skin lesions; predominance of polymorphonuclear leukocytosis. It can be associated with hematologic malignancies, idiopathic, parainflammatory, secondary to drugs and pregnancy. Myelodysplasias are haematological disorders characterized by one or more cytopenias secondary to bone marrow dysfunction. We report the case of a patient of 81 years with Sweet syndrome with subsequent diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome with good response to corticosteroid treatment and resolution of the skin lesions
