%X Toxic epidermal necrolysis syndrome (TENS) is a severe skin condition characterised by widespread detachment of the skin and mucous membranes. It is a life-threatening emergency caused by an immunological reaction to a foreign substance, such as medication. TENS is an extreme form of Stevens-Johnson syndrome and involves more than 30% of the body surface area. Due to the large areas of exposed skin, patients suffer conditions such as pain, infection, hypothermia, and dehydration. The main treatment of TENS is supportive, with a multidisciplinary team required.
