'''Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis''' is a life-threatening [[dermatology|dermatological]] condition that is frequently induced by a reaction to medications. It is characterized by the detachment of the top layer of skin (the [[epidermis]]) from the lower layers of the skin (the [[dermis]]) all over the body. There is broad agreement in the medical literature that TEN can be considered a more severe form of [[Stevens-Johnson syndrome]] and debate whether it falls on a spectrum of disease that includes [[erythema multiforme]].<ref>{{cite journal |author=Carrozzo M, Togliatto M, Gandolfo S |title=[Erythema multiforme. A heterogeneous pathologic phenotype] |journal=Minerva Stomatol|volume=48 |issue=5 |pages=217-26 |year=1999 |pmid=10434539}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |author=Farthing P, Bagan J, Scully C |title=Mucosal disease series.

==Pathophysiology==
|- bgcolor="Pink"
Microscopically, TEN causes [[cell death]] throughout the epidermis.  [[Keratinocytes]], which are the cells found lower in the dermis,  specialize in holding the skin cells together, undergo [[necrosis]] (uncontrolled cell death).
!
==Causes==
[[Flatulence overview|Overview]]
Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a rare and usually severe adverse reaction to certain drugs. History of medication use exists in over 95% of patients with TEN. The drugs most often implicated in TEN are antibiotics such as sulfonamides, [[nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs]], [[allopurinol]], [[antiretroviral drugs]], [[corticosteroids]] and[[anticonvulsant]]s such as [[phenobarbital]], [[phenytoin]], [[carbamazepine]], and [[valproic acid]].  The condition might also result from immunizations,  infection with agents such as ''[[Mycoplasma pneumoniae]]'' or  [[herpes virus]] and [[Organ transplant|transplant]]s of [[bone marrow]] or organs.

==Epidemiology and Demographics==

The [[incidence (epidemiology)|incidence]] is between 0.4 and 1.2 cases per 100,000 each year.
!
==Natural History, Complications and Prognosis==
[[Flatulence pathophysiology|Pathophysiology]]
The mortality for toxic epidermal necrolysis is 30-40%.<ref name=garra>Garra, GP (2007). "[http://www.emedicine.com/EMERG/topic599.htm Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis]". Emedicine.com. Retrieved on December 13, 2007.</ref>  Loss of the skin leaves patients vulnerable to infections from fungi and bacteria, and can result in [[septicemia]], the leading cause of death in the disease.<ref name=garra/> Death is caused either by [[infection]] or by [[respiratory distress]] which is either due to [[pneumonia]] or damage to the linings of the airway. Microscopic analysis of tissue (especially the degree of dermal mononuclear inflammation and the degree of inflammation in general) can play a role in determining the prognosis of individual cases.<ref>{{cite journal |author=Quinn AM et al |title=Uncovering histological criteria with prognostic significance in toxic epidermal necrolysis |journal=Arch Dermatol |volume=141 |issue=6 |pages=683-7 |year=2005 |pmid=15967913}}</ref>

==Diagnosis==
|- bgcolor="Pink"
===Laboratory Findings===
!
Sometimes, however, examination of affected tissue under the microscope may be needed to distinguish it between other entities such as [[staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome]]. Typical histological criteria of TEN include mild infiltrate of lymphocytes which may obscure the dermoepidermal junction and prominent cell death with basal vacuolar change and individual cell necrosis.<ref>{{cite journal |author=Pereira FA, Mudgil AV, Rosmarin DM |title=flatuelnce |journal=J Am Acad Dermatol|volume=56 |issue=2 |pages=181-200 |year=2007 |pmid=17224365}}</ref>
