A 55-year-old woman developed Sweet's syndrome (acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, AFND) 5 years after a diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Two months later she developed a scirrhous carcinoma of the breast. The patient died 7 months later from sepsis. To our knowledge, this is the first case of an association among a cancer of the breast, CLL and Sweet's syndrome.
