title: Immunopathological studies on a case of Sweet's syndrome.
abstract: Immunopathological studies in a case of Sweet's syndrome revealed IgM- and IgE-bearing polymorphonuclear leucocytes in involved skin when the direct immunofluorescence technique was used. Circulating polymorphonuclear neutrophils showed defective chemotaxis with normal random migration, phagocytosis, killing, and hexose monophosphate shunt activity.
