Abstract
The Sweet's syndrome, is an inflammatory skin disorder characterized by extensive infiltration of neutrophils in the dermis with extension to the subcutis, known as acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis. It may occur as a paraneoplastic syndrome. To our knowledge, there are currently few reports about transformation of a myelodysplastic syndrome to acute myeloid leukemia and concurrent necrotizing Sweet syndrome in the literature. Herein we describe an unusual case in a young patient with these characteristics that evolved to a fatal outcome.

Abstract
Necrotizing Sweet syndrome is a recently described entity that can pose significant challenges for management. Although necrotizing fasciitis can be rapidly fatal in the absence of prompt surgical management, necrotizing Sweet syndrome may actually be worsened by any surgical intervention. Authors want to emphasize and increase awareness of this rare presentation.
