Abstract
Sweet's syndrome is an acute neutrophilic dermatosis frequently found in association with other conditions, particularly inflammatory and ne oplastic disease. We report here a patient who developed the condition 2 years after the diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), in this case affecting a tonsil, the thirteenth report of such an association. We discuss the diagnosis, investigation and management of Sweet's syn drome in the context of the current case.
