Atypical Bullous Sweet Syndrome.

Sweet syndrome (acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis) is characterized by fever, leukocytosis, and tender erythematous skin lesions with neutrophilic infiltrate. Although associated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) use, its occurrence with pegfilgrastim-the pegylated form-is rare, with fewer than five reported cases. Sweet syndrome has also been rarely linked to FLT3 inhibitors such as quizartinib. We report a 71-year-old male with acute myeloid leukemia who developed bullous Sweet syndrome following concurrent exposure to pegfilgrastim and quizartinib.

Abstract

Sweet syndrome (acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis) is characterized by fever, leukocytosis, and tender erythematous skin lesions with neutrophilic infiltrate. Although associated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) use, its occurrence with pegfilgrastim-the pegylated form-is rare, with fewer than five reported cases. Sweet syndrome has also been rarely linked to FLT3 inhibitors such as quizartinib. We report a 71-year-old male with acute myeloid leukemia who developed bullous Sweet syndrome following concurrent exposure to pegfilgrastim and quizartinib.
