Abstract
|
|
|
Sweet¡¯s syndrome is acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis. It frequently involves upper and lower limbs, head and neck. The dermatologic symptom of Sweet¡¯s syndrome is elevated plaque, pain, and skin erythema. We have experienced a case of Sweet¡¯s syndrome which involved auricle and have needed to differentiate it from perichondritis. For the cases of assumed perichondritis that do not improve symptoms with treatment compatible for perichondiritis, Sweet¡¯s syndrome could be the etiology.
