Abstract
Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is an immune-complex-mediated hypersensitivity disorder that is a severe expression of erythema multiforme, typically involving skin, oral cavity, eyes and genitalia. It is caused by many drugs, viral infections, and malignancies. Presented here is an illustrative report of Stevens-Johnson syndrome in a 24-year-old male patient which commenced with explosive onset of lesions involving skin, oral mucosa and genitalia and was treated with corticosteroids.
