Abstrakt: Sweet syndrome (SS) is a neutrophilic dermatosis that may be associated with malignancy, especially hematologic malignancy. It may be a warning sign of malignancy or its recurrence. SS is typically a dermal process. Rare variants of SS are infrequently reported and the diagnosis is often delayed. Here, we describe three cases of unusual and atypical presentation of SS occurring in acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes. Accurate diagnosis, would facilitate early detection of underlying malignancy and adequate therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
