The case presented is a 66-year-old woman who attended the emergency department due to skin lesions on the limbs, facial oedema, and eye redness accompanied by haemorrhagic conjunctivitis. The symptoms resolved after one week of systemic steroid treatment. Skin biopsy confirmed Sweet syndrome. Sweet syndrome is rare disorder and unknown by most ophthalmologists despite its frequent ophthalmological manifestations. Ocular involvement is present in one third of patients, with episcleritis and conjunctivitis being the most repeated. Pathology findings confirm the diagnosis which is also characterised by a rapid response to systemic corticosteroids.
本例为 66 岁女性,因四肢皮损、面部水肿和眼红伴出血性结膜炎就诊于急诊科。经一周全身皮质类固醇治疗后症状缓解。皮肤活检证实为Sweet 综合征。Sweet 综合征是一种罕见疾病,尽管其常表现为眼部症状,但大多数眼科医生并不了解。三分之一的患者存在眼部受累,以表层巩膜炎和结膜炎最为常见。病理发现可明确诊断,该病还具有对全身皮质类固醇迅速反应的特点。
