We report a 69-year-old man diagnosed as myelodysplastic syndrome and administrated with azacitidine and selinexor treatment. Then he was revealed high fever and multiple tender erythematous papules involving his mouth, back, upper and lower extremities, which were diagnosed as Sweet's syndrome by skin biopsy. He was administrated with adalimumab and his rashes gradually disappeared after adalimumab treatment. But he had secondary disseminated fungal infections. Finally, he died of heart failure and severe infection. Trial Registration: The authors have confirmed clinical trial registration is not needed for this submission.
