ABSTRACT

Introdução: Necrólise epidérmica tóxica é uma erupção mucocutânea aguda grave, geralmente induzida por medicamentos, associada a alta taxa de morbidade e mortalidade. Os cuidados com as lesões mucosas e cutâneas e a abordagem multidisciplinar são muito importantes para o prognóstico e sequelas futuras. Objetivos: Discutir os principais aspectos dessa síndrome por meio da revisão de literatura, ilustrada por um caso clínico. Métodos: Revisão de literatura utilizando bases de dados on-line PubMed e Scielo. Incluímos artigos em língua inglesa, portuguesa, francesa e espanhola, e ilustração com caso clínico pediátrico. Termos procurados foram "toxic epidermal necrolysis", "Stevens-Johnson overlap", ''necrólise epidérmica tóxica'', ''síndrome Stevens-Johnson''. Resultados: Apresentamos dados para guiar o manejo de pacientes com necrólise epidérmica tóxica para cirurgiões plásticos, pediatras, intensivistas, dermatologistas e emergencistas. O caso tratado teve evolução favorável, sem sequelas cutâneas. Conclusão: O alto nível de suspeição é imprescindível para um diagnóstico e estratificação de risco adequados e instituição precoce de medidas de suporte, e o tratamento deve ser realizado por uma equipe multidisciplinar treinada para reduzir sequelas e mortalidade.


Introduction: Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a severe acute mucocutaneous condition usually induced by drugs associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. The care of the mucous lesions and skin and a multidisciplinary approach are very important for the prognosis and future sequelae. Objectives: To discuss the main aspects of this syndrome through a literature review illustrated by a clinical case. Methods: Review of the literature using the PubMed and SciELO online databases was performed. Articles in English, Portuguese, French, and Spanish were included and illustrated with a pediatric clinical case. The keywords used were as follows: "toxic epidermal necrolysis," "Stevens-Johnson overlap," "necrólise epidérmica tóxica," and "síndrome Stevens-Johnson." Results: We presented data to guide the management of patients with toxic epidermal necrolysis for plastic surgeons, pediatricians, intensivists, dermatologists, and emergency physicians. The case treated had a favorable disease course without sequelae. Conclusion: A high level of suspicion is necessary for an adequate diagnosis and risk stratification, and early support measures and treatment should be performed by a multidisciplinary team trained to minimize damage and mortality.
