Résumé

Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) are rare but serious dermatologic diseases. They can be associated with systemic manifestations such as bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS). SJS/TEN-induced BOS is associated with a poor prognosis, and no guidelines exist regarding its management. Several case reports have described the association between SJS/TEN and BOS, with few patients undergoing lung transplantation as a last resort therapy. Unfortunately, in the published reports, none of the transplanted patients were observed for a long period of time after the transplantation; therefore, the long-term mortality as well as the risk of recurrence of BOS could not be inferred from these reports.
