Abstract

Acral neutrophilic dermatosis (localized Sweet syndrome) was described as a predominantly cutaneous manifestation on the back of the hands, with histopathological characteristics of a leukocytoclastic vasculitis.

The presence of neutrophils and the paraclinical changes of a localized neutrophilic dermatosis were subsequently described. This entity is associated with the presence of infections, autoimmune diseases, drugs, and neoplasms. We report the case of a 69-year-old woman with a history of papillary thyroid carcinoma with painful nodules on the palms compatible with localized Sweet's syndrome.
