Abstract

Background: Sweet's syndrome which is characterized by fever and acute onset of skin lesions is in many times associated with other conditions including renal disease. Type of association and true rate is not yet clear.
Case report: We report a woman with end stage renal disease and peritonitis who developed Sweet's syndrome.
Conclusion: Sweet's syndrome can be associated with renal diseases, yet true association is not established. Case reports can add to field and increase data on this issue.
