[Sweet's syndrome].

Area of Science:

• Nephrology
• Dermatology
• Internal Medicine

Background:

• Sweet's syndrome is an acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis.
• Renal diseases can present with complex systemic manifestations.
• The co-occurrence of Sweet's syndrome and renal disease requires careful clinical evaluation.

Observation:

• A 50-year-old patient presented with clinical and pathological features of Sweet's syndrome.
• The patient also had coexisting renal diseases, specifically left ureter obstruction.
• The interplay between the dermatological and renal conditions was investigated.

Findings:

• The skin manifestations of Sweet's syndrome showed significant regression.
• Resolution was observed following left percutaneous nephrostomy to address ureter obstruction.
• Antibiotic and depuration therapies contributed to the overall improvement.

Implications:

• Percutaneous nephrostomy can be an effective intervention for Sweet's syndrome associated with obstructive uropathy.
• Integrated treatment approaches addressing both dermatological and renal aspects are crucial.
• This case highlights the importance of considering renal involvement in Sweet's syndrome management.
