Abstract
Neutrophilic dermatoses (ND) are inflammatory skin conditions characterized by a sterile infiltrate of normal polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The main clinical forms of ND include Sweet syndrome, pyoderma gangrenosum, erythema elevatum diutinum, subcorneal pustular dermatosis, and their atypical or transitional forms. ND are often idiopathic, but they may be associated with myeloid hematologic malignancies (Sweet syndrome), inflammatory bowel disease or rheumatoid arthritis (pyoderma gangrenosum), and monoclonal gammopathies (erythema elevatum diutinum, subcorneal pustular dermatosis). The possible infiltration of internal organs with neutrophils during the setting of ND underlies the concept of a neutrophilic systemic disease. ND may be seen as a polygenic autoinflammatory syndrome due to their frequent association with other autoinflammatory disorders (monogenic or polygenic) and the recent published efficacy of interleukin-1 blocking therapies in their management.
