[Sweet syndrome in chronic myeloid leukemia]. / Sweet-Syndrom bei chronisch myeloischer Leukämie.

A 31-year-old woman with chronic myeloid leukemia developed bullous skin changes not responding to antibiotic therapy. A biopsy showed a sterile predominantly neutrophilic infiltrate consistent with Sweet's syndrome. These skin changes responded well to methylprednisolon. Seven months later the patient died in a blast crisis.
