Abstract:
Sweet’s syndrome was first described by Dr. Robert Douglas
Sweet in 19641. It was originally described as an ‘acute
febrile neutrophilic dermatosis’1. There are primarily three subtypes of Sweet’s syndrome, ie. classical Sweet’s
syndrome, malignancy-associated Sweet’s syndrome and
drug-induced Sweet’s syndrome.We are reporting a case of
classical Sweet’s syndrome in a 47-year-old man.
