Abstract (2. Language): 
Sweet's syndrome is an acute, febrile, reactive neutrophilic skin disease. While it has known to be commonly associated with Streptococcal and Yersinia infections, the association with pulmonary tuberculosis is very rare. The present case of Sweet's syndrome with symptomatic tuberculosis exacerbated under steroid treatment, has improved clinically and radiologically with indomethacin and antituberculosis treatment.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Sweet sendromu akut, febril, reaktif nötrofilik bir deri hastalığıdır. Enfeksiyon hastalıklarına eşlik ettiği bilinen Sweet sendromu, sıklıkla Streptokok ve Yersinia enfeksiyonları ile birlikte olabilirken akciğer tüberkülozu ile görülmesi oldukça nadirdir. Steroid tedavisi alan ve semptomatik tüberkülozu olan Sweet sendromlu bu olgu, indometazin ve antitüberküloz tedavileri ile klinik ve radyolojik olarak tamamen iyileşti.
