RESUMO
Stevens –Johnsons Syndrome (SJS) is a rare autoimmune condition usually affecting the skin and mucus membranes. Stevens-Johnson syndrome is a minor form of toxic epidermal necrosis, with less than 10% body surface area (BSA) detachment. Various factors are notoriously known to cause this serious condition like medications, infectious and immunecompromised states, etc. We report the case of a 3 year girl with right sided pyothorax developing SJS during the course of her treatment and our subsequent management.
