Abstract

Neutrophilic Eccrine Hidradenitis (NEH) was initially described in 1982 by Harrist et al. [1] in a patient suffering from acute myelogenous leukemia and undergoing chemotherapy with DOXORUBICIN, CYTARABINE and VINCRISTINE. The frequency of this condition is unknown. There is a male predominance with a male to female sex ratio of 2.75:1. The mean age of diagnosis is 41 [2].
