Sweet's syndrome, or febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is a disease first described by Sweet R.D. in 1964 as a dermatologic disease. Subsequently, it has been associated to several disease. One of those rarely describe is the association to chronic intestinal inflammatory disease. We reviewed the cases studied in our hospital since 1980 and found two cases associated to chronic intestinal inflammatory disease. We recommend the carrying out of gastrointestinal studies in patients afflicted by Sweet's syndrome to detect its association.
