Deskripsi
Sweet’s syndrome is an uncommon skin disorder of unknown aetiology characterised by fever and painful skin lesions along with marked leucocytosis and elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Women between 30 and 50 years of age are at risk. The most common ocular involvement is conjunctivitis and episcleritis. Here, we present a 39-year-old lady with Sweet’s syndrome who presented with active retinal vasculitis and had dramatic improvement with systemic corticosteroids.
