Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) is a rare and severe mucocutaneous disease characterized by widespread epidermal necrosis and mucosal involvement affecting children and adults. It is an immune-mediated disease usually secondary to drug reaction, but in few cases it is an extrapulmonary complication of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. We report a case illustrating that the incomplete Steven-Johnson syndrome associated to Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection may present with skin and oral mucosal involvement alone without conjunctival or genital involvement.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
