Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN or Lyell's disease) is a rare life-threatening skin condition. It is probably an immune response triggered by some drugs or infection, which is more likely to happen in people with suppressed immunity. TEN causes extensive blistering and shedding of skin, similar to burns. Drugs used include oral steroids, thalidomide, immunosuppressants and immunoglobulins. This review of trials did not find any reliable evidence for the treatment of TEN. The only trial available used thalidomide, but this trial did not show any benefit from treatment compared against placebo but highlighted increased chances of dying from the treatment. Background

    Extractions: Divisione di Pediatria, Ospedale “Caduti Bollatesi”, Bollate, Milan SUMMARY. Toxic epidermal necrolysis (ten) is a common and potentially dangerous mucocutaneous disease characterized by rash, bullae, and diffuse exfoliation of wide cutaneous surface areas. A description is given of the disease, also known as Lyell’s syndrome, and it is distinguished from similar conditions. Information is provided regarding the epidemiology, aetiology, and pathogenesis of TEN, as well as its clinical features. Diagnosis and therapy are also considered. Pharmacological therapy is required, particularly with cyclosporin. Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), also known as Lyell’s syndrome, is a widespread life-threatening mucocutaneous disease that is particularly observed secondary to drug-taking. It characterized by rash, bullae, and diffuse exfoliation of wide cutaneous surface areas, as in second-degree burns. Separation of the dermal-epidermal junction causes Nikolsky’s sign and gives the skin the typical “wet dressing” appearance. In 1956 Lyell distinguished two entities in the description of toxic epidermal necrolysis: the Staphylococcal Scalded Skin Syndrome (SSSS) and what is now known as TEN.1

    Extractions: Annals of Burns and Fire Disasters - vol. XV - n. 2 - June 2002 SUMMARY. The extensive epidermal slough seen in toxic epidermal necrolysis resembles that of partial-thickness burns. Temporary coverage of denuded skin with biological or synthetic dressing materials minimizes heat and fluid loss from the wound, prevents wound infection, reduces pain, and promotes re-epithelialization. A 36-year-old female with epidermal sloughing in 90% total body surface area was successfully treated in this way. All detached epidermis was removed and the denuded skin was temporarily covered with Omiderm® and glycerol-preserved human cadaver allografts. We observed that these synthetic and biological materials were equally effective as regards healing time and quality. Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) or Lyell’s syndrome is an idiosyncratic severe systemic disease characterized by extensive full-thickness epidermal sloughing (30-100% total body surface area) associated with mucous membrane and corneal involvement, fever, and severe pain. TEN is most often related to adverse drug reaction and has a significant morbidity and high mortality (mean, 30%) with an average incidence in Western countries of about 1 per million.1

    Extractions: Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a life-threatening skin disease in which the epidermis peels off in sheets, leaving widespread denuded areas. This disorder can be caused by a drug reaction, most often penicillin, or by staphylococcal infections. About one-third of all diagnosed are a result of unknown causes. The symptoms of toxic epidermal necrolysis are: a painful, red area that spreads quickly, the top layer of skin may peel without blistering, scalded-looking raw areas of flesh, discomfort and fever. The condition may spread to eyes, mouth, and genitals. Is your favorite site missing from this list? Tell our webmaster the address and we'll post it!

Dermatology: Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis 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 exposed. The loss of skin allows fluids and salts to ooze from the raw, damaged areas and can easily become infected. The following are the other most common symptoms of toxic epidermal necrolysis. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include: a painful, red area that spreads quickly

    Extractions: Mary Grove was suddenly shedding skin in large red patches. The loss was a threat to her life. My Friend Bill Cook, a primary care physician, called me one morning. "I've admitted a patient, a 28-year-old woman," he said. "She's losing her skin. Can you come and take a look at her?" He explained that the patient, Mary Grove, had come to his office the day before, complaining that her skin had suddenly begun to peel. She felt strangeweak and tenderand her eyes and mouth felt irritated. I am a dermatologist, and from Bill's description I had a good idea of what was wrong with Mary. Before going in to see her, I reviewed her chart. Mary worked as a receptionist and had a husband and two small children. She had felt fine until the day she was hospitalized. The hospital staff performed routine tests, including a chest X-ray and blood tests. They also put Mary on intravenous fluid replacement therapy and pain medications.

    Extractions: ABBREVIATIONS. TEN, toxic epidermal necrolysis; EM, erythema multiforme minor; SJS, Stevens-Johnson syndrome; TBSA, total body surface area; ADEN, acute disseminated epidermal necrosis. Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a rare but life-threatening exfoliating disease of the skin and mucous membranes. The disease manifests itself by extensive blistering of the skin with full-thickness necrosis of the epidermis and involvement of mucosal surfaces (Fig 1). (1-3) The skin separation occurs at the dermoepidermal junction, and, even in unblistered areas, the epidermis can be removed easily by light tangential pressure (Nikolski's sign). [FIGURE 1 OMITTED] TEN and SJS both seem to be caused by immunologic reactions to foreign antigens. Drugs are implicated in 77% to 94% of cases. (8-11) Antibacterials and antifungals (36%), anticonvulsants (24%), analgesics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (38%), and even corticosteroids (14%) have been suspected of causing the disease process. (11-13) The underlying pathophysiologic mechanism is unclear. The histologic characteristics of TEN include dermoepidermal separation resembling a blistering scald burn, followed by necrosis and shedding of the epidermis. (14) Because of histologic similarities with graft-versus-host reaction, specifically infiltration by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, an autoimmune reaction to keratinocytes has been postulated. (1,15)
