Abstract
Toxic epidermal necrolysis, although uncommon, warrants the attention of all clinicians because of its serious prognosis. The clinical course of this cutaneous syndrome is similar in children and adults, but some differences do exist. Because diagnostic laboratory tests are not available, the physician must recognize the disorder by its distinctive appearance and clinical history. Treatment must be both topical and systemic.
