SUMMARYToxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a rare, drug‐induced, life‐threatening syndrome with widespread epidermal loss and mucosal erosions. The classification, pathophysiology, clinical features and treatment are discussed in this review. Prognosis has improved as admission to a burns unit and early treatment of infection has become standard ...

Journal of Burn Care & Rehabilitation, 1997
Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a poorly understood and devastating condition. It is usually diagnosed in a primary care setting. Treatment of severe cases by burn care personnel is usually by referral. In this review, we report excessive mortality rates associated with prolonged use of systemic steroid therapy and delayed referral (more than 1 ...

A DIFFUSE bullous eruption of acute onset associated with marked skin tenderness was described in 1956 by Lyell1 as well as Lang and Walker.2 Subsequently, Beare3 reviewed the literature and described. the clinical and histologic manifestations of 10 cases observed in Irish adults and children.

Toxic epidermal necrolysis is one of the rarest events -- a dermatologic emergency. The clinical presentation is characteristic -- disseminate erythema and widespread bullous necrosis of the epidermis and mucous membranes. Toxicity is universal and mortality is substantial even with prompt and intensive therapy. Drugs are the most commonly incriminated

Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a rare but life-threatening adverse drug reaction. Implicated drugs are sulfonamides, anticonvulsants, allopurinol, and pyrazolone derivatives. Recently, advances in pathogenesis have been made in two directions. It is now known that (1) most patients with TEN have an abnormal metabolism to the culprit drug; and (2 ...

This syndrome, resembling scalding of the skin, is presented, with a review of the literature and description of a fatal case. The disease consists of a prodrome of malaise, lethargy, and fever, followed by erythema and massive bullae formation. Pathologically, there is epidermal necrosis and vesication at the dermal-epidermal junction, but the dermis ...

A striking dermatologic disease resembling scalding, namely acute pemphigus, has been recently renamed toxic epidermal necrolysis by Lyell,1or epidermolysis necroticans combustiformis by Soltermann.2Already, mention has been made in the literature of a score or more examples under these names, and the disease is apparently not rare.3However, no recent ...

Pharmacogenetics of toxic epidermal necrolysis
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2010Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) are two of the most severe drug-induced cutaneous reactions. Advances in genome technologies have allowed researchers to identify genetic markers associated with this drug-associated event and these have provided a potential tool for prevention.Current updates of genetic biomarkers ...

Interventions for toxic epidermal necrolysis
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2002Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a rare condition where a drug reaction induces skin loss, similar to that seen in extensive burns. It is associated with high morbidity and mortality and there is no clear agreement on effective treatment.To assess the effects of all interventions for the treatment of toxic epidermal necrolysis.We searched the Cochrane ...

We present a case report of a patient with toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), associated with therapy with trimethoprin and sulfamethoxazole. Because of the similarity of TEN to an extensive partial-thickness burn, and the favorable response to the treatment used in burns, surgeons who treat burns should be familiar withe disease and take an active role
