Sweet's syndrome as initial presentation of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
We here report an uncommon association of Sweet's syndrome with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, in which the skin symptoms led to a diagnosis of the underlying disease. Association with the disease was implied by resolution of skin lesions during chemotherapy and reappearance of skin symptoms after renewed progression of the non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
