Neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis in a patient with Behçet's disease.

چکیده
Patients with Behçet's disease may develop multiple mucocutaneous manifestations, several of which are mediated by neutrophils. These include aphthous ulcers, pseudofolliculitis, acneform lesions, and pathergy. We report another neutrophil-mediated disorder, neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis (NEH), in a patient with Behçet's disease. NEH should be added to the list of mucocutaneous lesions that may be seen in patients with Behçet's disease.
