This case reports recurrent neutrophilic panniculitis in a myelodysplastic neoplasms patient, highlighting diagnosis challenges.
Neutrophilic dermatoses (ND) encompass a diverse group of inflammatory skin disorders characterized by sterile, predominantly neutrophilic infiltrates. Herein, we present the case of a 38-year-old male with very high-risk hypocellular myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) exhibiting recurrent neutrophilic panniculitis (NP) involving the lower extremities. The patient underwent hematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation (HPCT) resulting in lesion remission. This case emphasizes the importance of considering NP in ND diagnoses, especially in the context of hematological disorders. Diffusion of such cases is essential for healthcare professionals to enhance their ability to recognize and effectively address this rare condition.
