A 55-year-old man developed multiple erythematous skin lesions after surgery for acoustic neurinoma. Necrosis and detachment of the epidermis developed and a diagnosis of toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) was made. Progressive dyspnea was evident two days after the onset of the skin lesions. Chest X-ray revealed diffuse interstitial shadows in both lung fields. On bronchoscopic examination, erosion, vesicle formation, necrosis and desquamation of the epidermis were seen in the tracheobronchial mucosa. Therapy, including prednisolone, improved the skin lesions as well as the chest X-ray and bronchoscopic findings. Tracheobronchial and pulmonary lesions were followed before, during and after treatment of TEN.(Internal Medicine 33: 252-255, 1994)
