Successful treatment of a female pediatric patient with carbamazepine-induced toxic epidermal necrolysis: Active wound care and systemic therapy

摘要

We describe a 6-year-old female patient who developed carbamazepine-associated toxic epidermal necrolysis.With active wound care,systemic methylprednisolone and intravenous immunoglobulin pulse therapies and multidisciplinary supportive care,the patient improved significantly.This case indicates that improving the management of Stevens-Johnson syndrome/Toxic epidermal necrolysis patients requires attention not only to the process of wound management but also to individual supportive care and active therapeutic intervention.Only through this can standardized care,including muco-cutaneous and visceral wound care,be delivered to provide high-quality care with improved clinical prognosis and quality of life.
