Objective: To present a case of relapsing and resistant Sweet’s syndrome that developed during pregnancy together with an onset of Crohn’s disease, showing complete resolution with the use of infliximab. Clinical Presentation and Intervention: A 30-year-old pregnant woman presented with fever, skin lesions, and diarrhea. Skin biopsy confirmed neutrophilic dermatosis and she was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease after endoscopy. There was no recurrence of Sweet’s syndrome outside of her pregnancy. During a previous pregnancy, while corticosteroids were ineffective, complete regression of skin lesions was achieved using infliximab. Conclusion: The “off-label” use of infliximab is beneficial for relapsing and resistant Sweet’s syndrome.

Sweet’s syndrome is a rare, acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis sometimes associated with inflammatory diseases, infections, malignancies or the administration of pharmacotherapeutics. Very seldom, it occurs as an extraintestinal manifestation of Crohn’s disease. We present a unique combined diagnosis of recurrent Sweet’s syndrome associated with colovaginal fistulization, subsequently diagnosed as Crohn’s disease.

Sjögren‘S Syndrome

The association of Crohn's disease (CD) and Sweet's syndrome is rare and the presence of Sjögren's syndrome in Crohn's disease is even rarer, with only three reports found in the literature. We describe two cases of Crohn's disease associated with Sweet's syndrome, one of which is the first case of CD and Sweet's concomitantly associated with Sjögren's syndrome. Both cases responded rapidly to Infliximab therapy with complete resolution of the skin lesions.

Rapid Appearance

Sweet’s syndrome, also known as acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is a rare disorder that typically presents with rapid appearance of tender skin lesions accompanied by fever and leukocytosis with neutrophilia. Its pathogenesis is not fully understood. The syndrome is generally classified into classical, malignancy-associated, and drug-induced categories, each of which has its specific characteristics. In this article, we present a case of classical Sweet’s syndrome in a woman who presented with an acute viral illness.
