Sweet's syndrome on surgical scar

Sweet's syndrome is a rare dermatosis, characterized by acute tender erythematous plaques or nodules. The case of a 55-year old woman with a skin lesion compatible with Sweet's syndrome surrounding a surgical scar on the face, after removing an actinic keratosis lesion, and using dipyrone is reported. The reported case points to the possibility of the occurrence of Köebner phenomenon in Sweet's syndrome, probably triggered by the use of dipyrone
