ABSTRACT
Acute vanishing bile duct syndrome, a rare but rapidly progressive destruction of the intrahepatic bile ducts with unknown pathogenesis, is most often a drug- or toxin-related. Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a serious dermatologic condition and a potentially life threatening disease, which is drug or infection induced. Ibuprofen associated acute vanishing bile duct syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis have not been reported previously in infants. We report a 7-month-old infant with ibuprofen associated toxic epidermal necrolysis, followed by severe and rapidly progressive vanishing bile duct syndrome. She recovered totally with supportive care.
