Neutrophilic dermatosis of the dorsal hands (NDDH) is a recently described skin disorder regarded as a localized variant of acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis (Sweet syndrome). The lesions of NDDH are characterized by erythematous plaques, pustules, and hemorrhagic bullae on the dorsal surface of the hands. Herein, we report a case of NDDH in a 52-year-old man with concomitant involvement of the ankle. The patient presented with well-demarcated erythematous papules, patches, and plaques on the dorsum of the hands as well as erythematous papules on the left ankle for 3 days. The lesions responded rapidly to systemic corticosteroid therapy.

The lesions of neutrophilic dermatosis (pustular vasculitis) of the dorsal hands clinically resembled those of Sweet's syndrome and showed similar histologic evidence of a dense dermal neutrophilic infiltrate. We, herein, present a case of neutrophilic dermatosis of the dorsal hands in a 70-year-old woman with bacterial endocarditis. The patient presented with hemorrhagic pustular blisters on the dorsal hands. Histopathologic findings were pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia, intraepidermal pustules, histiocytic infiltration and a few perivascular neutrophilic infiltrations. The skin lesion improved spontaneously.
