We describe a 5-month-old boy with clinical and histopathologic presentation of Sweet syndrome. He responded to systemic corticosteroids, with multiple flares on tapering; potassium iodide was added, which provided complete resolution of Sweet syndrome. Potassium iodide has been used in only a few cases, and no standard dosage has been established in children. We discuss calculation of a pediatric dosage for potassium iodide in Sweet syndrome.
我们描述了一名5个月大的男童,其临床表现和组织病理学表现符合Sweet综合征。他对全身用皮质类固醇有反应,但在逐渐减量时出现多次病情复发;加用碘化钾后,Sweet综合征完全缓解。碘化钾仅在少数病例中使用过,儿童中尚未确立标准剂量。我们讨论了Sweet综合征中碘化钾儿科剂量的计算方法。
