Sweet's syndrome (SS) is characterized by various clinical symptoms, physical features, and pathological findings. Although cases of SS are very rare, there has been an increase in the incidence of drug-induced SS. Till date, there have been only few reported cases of isotretinoin-induced SS. In this report, we describe the case of a 19-year-old girl who developed SS after systemic treatment with oral isotretinoin for nodulocystic acne.
The findings of this report emphasize the importance of evaluating isotretinoin as a possible, though uncommon, cause of SS and replacing it with another treatment if its involvement is suspected.
Sweet综合征(SS)具有多种临床症状、体征及病理表现。尽管SS病例非常罕见,但药物性SS的发病率有所上升。迄今为止,异维A酸诱发SS的报道病例仅有少数。在本报告中,我们描述了一名19岁女孩的病例,她在口服异维A酸全身治疗结节囊肿性痤疮后发生了SS。
本报告的研究结果强调了评估异维A酸作为SS一种可能(尽管不常见)病因的重要性,并且如果怀疑其与SS有关,应换用其他治疗方法。
