In acute phase it is crucial to assess the culprit agent, in particular when the patient was assuming several drugs at time of DHR. Dermatologist and/or allergist should confirm the diagnosis, individuate the culprit agent, give indications about skin management and necessity to obtain theconsultationofthe ENT specialist, the gynecologist/urologist, the ophthalmologist and/or the pulmonologist in the case of mucosal involvement. Although the etiology is. Narita YM, et al. Main discriminating factors between EMM, SJS, SJS-TEN, TEN and SSSS is summarized in Table3 [84].

Although the final result of this dual interaction is still under investigation, it seems that the combination of TNF-, IFN- (also present in TEN patients) and the activation of other death receptors such as TWEAK can lead to apoptosis of keratinocytes [44]. Topical treatment. Plasmapheresis may have a role in the treatment of ED because it removes Fas-L [96], other cytokines known to be implied in the pathogenesis (IL-6, IL-8, TNF-) [97, 98]. In EMM their efficacyis demonstrated in controlling the evolution of the disease [106]. Autologous transplantation of mesenchymal umbilical cord cells seems also to be highly efficacious [102].

It is also recommended to void larger vesicles with a syringe. Chung and colleagues found an high expression of this molecule in TEN blister fluid [39] and confirmed both in vitro and in vivo its dose-dependent cytotoxicity [39]. Other patients may warrant PUVA (psoralen plus ultraviolet A) phototherapy, systemic steroids (if psoriasis has been ruled out), retinoids (for exfoliative dermatitis secondary to psoriasis and pityriasis rubra pilaris), or immunosuppressive agents such as methotrexate (Rheumatrex) and azathioprine (Imuran).2527, When used as adjunctive therapy, behavior modification designed to eliminate persistent scratching has been successful in reducing the rate of excoriation and increasing the rate of healing.28.

In addition to all these mechanisms, alarmins, endogenous molecules released after cell damage, were found to be transiently increased in SJS/TEN patients, perhaps amplifying the immune response, including -defensin, S100A and HMGB1 [47]. Erythema multiforme, StevensJohnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis in northeastern Malaysia. Even though there is a strong need for randomized trials, anti-TNF- drugs, in particular a single dose of infliximab 5mg/kg ev or 50mg etanercept sc should be considered in the treatment of SJS and TEN, especially the most severe cases when IVIG and intravenous corticosteroids dont achieve a rapid improvement. Hypothermia can result in ventricular flutter, decreased heart rate and hypotension. It is advised against the use of silver sulfadiazine because sulphonamide can be culprit agents. Once ED has occurred, it has to be managed in the adequate setting with a multidisciplinary approach, and every effort has to be made to identify and avoid the trigger and to prevent infectious and non-infectious complications. Hypervolemia can also occur in patients with exfoliative dermatitis, contributing to the likelihood of cardiac failure.2124, In most patients with erythroderma, skin biopsies show nonspecific histopathologic features, such as hyperkeratosis, parakeratosis, acanthosis and a chronic perivascular inflammatory infiltrate, with or without eosinophils.
