Sweet syndrome is an uncommon inflammatory skin condition. Here we present a case of Sweet syndrome in a young woman with rare extracutaneous manifestations, including bone and splenic fluid collections, with marked improvement following treatment with systemic corticosteroids. The patient was subsequently diagnosed with Crohn's disease which can be seen in the setting of Sweet syndrome. Sterile abscesses should be considered in patients with a clinical diagnosis of Sweet syndrome and focal symptomatology.
Sweet综合征是一种罕见的炎症性皮肤病。在此,我们报告一例年轻女性Sweet综合征病例,该患者有罕见的皮肤外表现,包括骨骼和脾脏积液,经全身糖皮质激素治疗后有明显改善。该患者随后被诊断为克罗恩病,这在Sweet综合征患者中可见。对于临床诊断为Sweet综合征且有局部症状的患者,应考虑无菌性脓肿。
