Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Sweet’s syndrome is a reactive dermatosis which usually presents as edematous papules and plaques, and very rarely vesicles. It is seen to be associated with various conditions such as autoimmune diseases, malignancy, infections, and drugs. Malignancy associated with Sweet’s syndrome is known to occur anytime during the course of the disease and also after treatment. Very rarely, it is seen during radiation therapy. Here, we are presenting a case of Sweet’s syndrome in a postsurgery and chemotherapy patient with breast carcinoma during radiation therapy.
