Abstract

Amine Salmi

Lyell’s syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis is a bullous dermatosis, of etiology, very often medicated. It is an acute necrosis of the epidermis, with a clinical appearance of extensive burns. At this table are associated mucosal damage and, frequently, a multiorgan making poor prognosis. We report in this paper a case of toxic epidermal necrolysis, which illustrates the importance of early treatment in an intensive care unit, whose foundations are based on fluid and electrolyte intake, infection prevention and its treatment with appropriate antibiotics.
