Introduction: Azathioprine hypersensitivity can occasionally present as Sweet-like syndrome, a dose-independent side effect characterized by the unanticipated onset of macules, papules, and pustules.
Case Presentation: A 35-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus presented with complaints of generalized maculopapular rash, facial swelling, and bilateral lower extremity edema with a duration of 4 days and a 2-day history of constitutional symptoms within 2 weeks of the beginning of azathioprine therapy to treat existing lupus nephritis (class 2/3).

Background/Objectives Neutrophilic dermatoses can be associated with autoimmune connective tissue diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

Methods We retrieved database medical records of patients with SLE whose skin biopsy demonstrated a neutrophilic-predominant infiltrate of the skin, and included those whose biopsies revealed findings of SLND or NUD.
