ABSTRACT
We present the case of a patient person of mixed race of 41 years of age, that he attends consultation to present injuries in skin characterized by nodules and infiltrated erythematous plates with violaceous tincture, accompanied of fever and leucocytosis. A biopsy of skin is carried on to this patient, which informs a Neutrophilic Feverish Intense Dermatosis (Sweet's Syndrome), associate hematological malignant disease.
