Corresponding Author: Sweet sendromu, siklikla orta yasli bayan hastalarda görülen ve eklemler, böbrek, karaciger ve akciger tutulumu gibi ekstra kütanöz tutulumlarin da görülebilecegi bir dermatozdur. Hastalarin %10 ila 54’ünde altta yatan özellikle hematolojik bir malignansinin olabilecegi bildirilmektedir. Hastalarin basvurulari esnasinda artmis eritrosit sedimentasyon hizi (ESR) ve prodromal üst solunum yolu rahatsizligi semptomlari olabilmektedir.2 Literatürde sweet sendromuna bagli konjonktivit, episklerit, subkonjonktival hemoraji , inflamatuar glokom, iritis ve limbal nodül vakalari bildirilmistir.3-7 Sweet sendromun etiyolojisi halen tam olarak açiklanamamis olmakla beraber, yardimci T hücrelerinin nötrofilik stimulasyona yol açarak dermiste eritematöz bulgulara yol açtigi öne sürülmüstür.8 Biz de hastamizda non nekrotizan anterior skleritle giden Sweet sendromu düsündük ve sistemik kortikosteroid tedavisine ek olarak topikal steroid ve suni göz yasi damla ve jel basladik. Oküler tutulumun düzelmesiyle topikal ve sistemik steroid tedavisi tedricen azaltilan hasta halen klinigimiz ve dermotoloji bölümünce takip edilmektedir. Tüm bu bilgilerin isiginda agrili cilt lezyonlariyla gelen oküler inflamasyonlu vakalarda Sweet sendromunun da ayirici tanida akilda tutulmasi gereken durumlardan biri oldugu bilinmelidir.
