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 ...

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

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1965
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 ...

Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a severe mucocutaneous reaction pattern characterized by fever, systemic toxicity, tenderness, erythema, and widespread exfoliation. Lyell1 of Glasgow, Scotland, and Lang and Walker2 of Cape Town, South Africa, independently described this syndrome in 1956.

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

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 ...

Advances in toxic epidermal necrolysis
Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 1996On the basis of the clinicopathologic and causative characteristics, one can separate an erythema multiformis spectrum from a toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN)-Stevens Johnson syndrome which is a drug induced disease. Despite a well-known clinical aspect, several cutaneous diseases may be mistaken for TEN.

Plasmapheresis in toxic epidermal necrolysis
International Journal of Dermatology, 1997Abstract Background The treatment of toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is usually based on the removal of the offending drug(s), fluid replacement, nutritional support, and local management. The mortality and morbidity, however, remain high and the death rate may be reduced to 10% only in special centers that use biologic dressings. Plasma exchange (PE)

Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are life-threatening severe adverse drug reactions. Once thought to be idiosyncratic and unpredictable, there has been significant progress made in the understanding of the pathomechanism and pharmacogenetics of such reactions.
