Sweet's syndrome with small cell carcinoma of the lung.
We report a 59-year-old male with Sweet's syndrome who developed small cell carcinoma of the lung one year after the initial diagnosis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of Sweet's syndrome in conjunction with lung cancer. In cases of Sweet's syndrome, a search for not only hematologic disorders but also for solid tumors should be made.
