Extractions: Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) begins with fever, cough, and other nonspecific symptoms, and is soon followed by purplish, bloody-looking lesions on the skin and mucous membranes. These early lesions, typically found on the head, neck, and upper chest, soon merge and blister. Sheets of epidermis then begin to detach from the skin layers below. In time, the entire surface of the skin may be involved, with detachment of 100% of the epidermis. Causes and symptoms The main cause of TEN is a severe drug reaction. Some investigators believe there may be additional infectious causes. A severe reaction in transplant patients, called graft-vs.-host disease, can also produce TEN. One study reported more than 100 different drugs as causes of TEN. The drugs most commonly implicated, however, include antibacterial sulfonamides such as sulfadiazine, antibiotics such as aminopenicillins and cephalosporins, and anticonvulsants like phenytoin. TEN is extremely rare. Researchers estimate that there are 0.2 cases per million users of aminopenicillins and 4.5 cases per million users of sulfonamides. Exactly what leads to detachment of the epidermis remains unclear. People with TEN seem to have difficulty metabolizing the offending drug. Some researchers suggest that certain substances that should be cleared from the body instead get deposited on the outer shell of the epidermis, causing an immune response that leads the body to "reject" the skin.

Dermatology Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a life-threatening skin disorder characterized by a blistering and peeling of the skin. This disorder can be caused by a drug reaction - frequently antibiotics or anticonvulsives. About one-third of all diagnosed cases of toxic epidermal necrolysis do not have an identifiable cause. Toxic epidermal necrolysis causes the skin to peel in sheets, leaving large, raw areas. The loss of skin allows fluids and salts to ooze from the raw, damaged areas and can easily become infected. The following are the most common symptoms of toxic epidermal necrolysis. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include: The symptoms of toxic epidermal necrolysis may resemble other skin conditions. Always consult your child's physician for a diagnosis.

Extractions: Etiologically many factors have been indicated as etiological moments of TEN: drugs, microorganisms, food and other elements having an antigenic action. Some drugs may act as factors causing TEN; among them there are Fans, Antibiotics, Anticonvulsants (Phenobarbital, Carbomazefine) and Allopurinol. Some factors such as connective diseases or infections (29), may make it easier for TEN to arise. TEN has been also associated with morbilli, flu, vaccination, serious infections, septicemia by Clostridium Septicum, Escherichia Coli, Klebsiella Pneumoniae, Pseudomonas Aeruginosa, Streptococcus Pyogenes (7).That is the reason why during TEN pathogenesis a great number of physiopathological events occur; these events are not quite clear and various mechanisms have been hypothesized, such as:

Medications associated with erythema multiforme include sulfonamides, penicillins, barbiturates, and phenytoin. Associated infections include herpes simplex and mycoplasma infections. The exact cause is unknown. The disorder is believed to involve damage to the blood vessels of the skin with subsequent damage to skin tissues. Approximately 90% of erythema multiforme cases are associated with herpes simplex or Mycoplasma infections. The disorder occurs primarily in children and young adults. Erythema multiforme may present with a classic skin lesion with or without systemic (whole body) symptoms. In Stevens-Johnson syndrome, the systemic symptoms are severe and the lesions are extensive, involving multiple body areas (especially the mucous membranes).

Both diseases, SJS and TEN, are primarily, if not solely, caused by drugs among adults, and approximately 50% are drug-related among all ages. The most common drugs associated with SJS and TEN are antibiotics, NSAIDs and anti-convulsants. Prescription NSAIDs, such as Feldene (piroxicam) and Daypro (oxaprozin), are one of the leading classes of drugs that cause SJS and TEN reactions. In many countries, increasing rates of skin eruptions are attributed to (NSAIDs). NSAIDs have played in increasing role in the etiology or cause of TEN, and it has been reported in the medical literature that some NSAIDs that have a long half-life carry a higher risk of SJS or TEN. History In 1922, Stevens and Johnson described two children with fever and stomatitis (mouth ulcers), severe disseminated conjunctivitis (eye inflammation) and cutaneous (skin) eruptions. It soon became evident that severe forms of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) could lead to toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and that both diseases could be induced by the same drugs.
