Subcutaneous Sweet Syndrome Successfully Treated With Ustekinumab in a Patient With Ulcerative Colitis.

Ustekinumab, an inhibitor of the interleukin-12/23 pathway, received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in 2019 for induction and maintenance therapy in patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis (UC). Data regarding the efficacy of ustekinumab in the treatment of extraintestinal manifestations of UC are unclear. Sweet syndrome, an acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is a cutaneous manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease that parallels disease activity. In this study, we present the first case of subcutaneous Sweet syndrome with sterile osteomyelitis in a patient with UC successfully treated with ustekinumab.
