| Özet |
| Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a disease that mostly caused by drug use and characterized by acute onset and rapidly progressive necrosis of the epidermis. In severe cases, mortality rate change between 20% and 60%. Although there is no definite treatment, some authors have reported the effectiveness of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). Here, we presented a 9-year-old male patient with TEN. Skin rashes of patient began after three days of using ibuprofen, metronidazole, clarithromycin, and procaine penicillin. Skin lesions resembling second-degree burns covered 50% of the patient’s body surface area. After giving high-dose IVIG, the patient’s lesions improved. This case is an example of effect of high dose IVIG in the treatment of TEN. J Clin Exp Invest 2013; 4 (4): 503-505 |
