Abstract

The article is devoted to such a serious disease as Lyell’s syndrome. This disease is characterized by severe total erythematous-bullous lesions of the skin and mucous membranes, forming necrotic fields in the final stage, which resemble a burn with 2 and 3 degree boiling water. This article compares these two diseases with Lyell’s syndrome and Stevens-Johnson syndrome. These diseases are susceptible to both adults and children. Data on the timing and cost of treatment for Lyell’s syndrome of an adult and a child are given. The treatment of Stevens-Johnson syndrome will be cheaper and takes less time than treatment of patients with Lyell’s syndrome. The etiology and pathogenesis of these diseases has not been fully understood, but due to genetic, immunological and other active scientific research, there is an active study of these diseases.
