In particular, a specific T cell clonotype was present in the majority of patients with carbamazepine-induced SJS/TEN and that this clonotype was absent in all patients tolerant to the drug who shared the same HLA with the SJS/TEN patients [45]. It is important to take into consideration the mechanism of action of the different drugs in the pathogenesis of ED [104]. Exfoliative dermatitis accounts for about 1 percent of all hospital admissions for dermatologic conditions.3, Although the disease affects both men and women, it is more common in men, with an average male-to-female ratio of 2.3:1. Insidious development of the erythroderma, progressive debilitation of the patient, absence of previous skin disease and resistance to standard therapy are features that may suggest an underlying malignancy.6,11, Erythroderma is also associated with disorders that cannot easily be classified into groups. 2007;56(5 Suppl):S1189.
