Sweet syndrome, first described in 1964 by Robert Douglas Sweet, is an acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis. Neutrophilic dermatoses consist of a group of non-infectious disorders that are characterized by neutrophilic infiltration of the skin (epidermis, dermis or hypodermis) with or without true
Sweet's syndrome (SS) is an inflammatory disease characterized by fever, leucocytosis and distinctive skin lesions that histologically consist of a dermal infiltrate of neutrophils with nuclear fragmentation. Aseptic neutrophilic inflammation may occur also in other organs. Central nervous system
Sweet syndrome is a rare disorder that is manifested by constellation of clinical features, including fever, neutrophilic leucocytosis, raised painful plaques on skin and dermal infiltration by neutrophils. Numerous aetiological associations have been reported in the literature, including various
BACKGROUND
Sweet syndrome is a neutrophilic skin disease that can involve extracutaneous signs. Here we describe a case of aseptic meningitis, a rare potential extracutaneous sign of Sweet syndrome.
METHODS
A 42-year-old man was hospitalized for non-pruritic maculoerythematous skin lesions of the
The nervous system is a unique network of different cell types and comprises a variety of proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates that have an important interplay with all major organs in the body. Homeostatic regulation of nervous tissue turnover must be carefully controlled, taking into account
Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene mutations are associated with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). Recent studies have suggested that MEFV gene mutations may act as disease modifiers in neuro-Behçet's (NBD) disease and neuro-Sweet disease (NSD). We investigated MEFV genes and clinical features in 17
BACKGROUND
Sweet syndrome is an uncommon skin condition, often idiopathic in origin although it may be reactive to various systemic conditions, recent infections, underlying malignancies, and medications.
OBJECTIVE
To present a case highlighting a rare clinical presentation and to review the causes
We report 2 cases that were considered to be neuro-Sweet disease. They initially manifested with meningoencephalitis and no skin lesions, and rapidly improved with corticosteroid therapy. In both cases, patients complained of meningitic symptoms such as fever and headache, and HLA-B54 and -Cw1
There is currently a worldwide trend to reduce sugar consumption. This trend is mostly met by the use of artificial non-nutritive sweeteners. However, these sweeteners have also been proven to have adverse health effects such as dizziness, headaches, gastrointestinal issues, and mood changes for
To describe diverse neurologic and neuroradiologic presentations of two rare, immunologically mediated skin conditions: Sweet disease and localized scleroderma (morphea).Core syndromes of neuro-Sweet disease (NSD) are steroid responsiveness, recurrent
Neuro-Sweet disease (NSD) is Sweet disease with central nervous system (CNS) involvement. To the best of our knowledge, the present case report is the first to describe NSD complicated by endogenous infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The present case report describes a male patient who
BACKGROUND
Cases of multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS) have been reported predominantly in adult patients, but pediatric cases have rarely been reported.
METHODS
We present a 5-year-old girl who suffered from recurrent reactions accompanied by urticaria, angioedema, headaches, dyspnea, loss of
BACKGROUND
Sweet's syndrome is a multi-system inflammatory disorder characterised by painful skin lesions and aseptic neutrophilic infiltration of various organs. We describe a case of Sweet's syndrome with aseptic meningitis in association with Crohn's disease (neuro-Sweet syndrome). This
The patient was hospitalized due to rapidly undulant fever and sore throat. Empirical antibiotic therapy was started, however, headache also occurred. Lumbar puncture disclosed polynuclear leukocyte-predominant pleocytosis indicating that the patient suffered from bacterial meningitis. The
The patient was a 53-year-old woman with an 18-year history of recurrent oral aphtae, genital ulcers and folliculitis-like erupsions without mucocutaneus symptoms. She was admitted to our hospital for headache, and presented with meningeal irritation, dysarthria and right pyramidal signs. Brain MRI
