We describe here a patient with severe TEN and respiratory distress and we review the subject of bronchopulmonary symptoms in TEN.

Zusammenfassung:	We describe here a patient with severe TEN and respiratory distress and we review the subject of bronchopulmonary symptoms in TEN.

The mechanisms of pulmonary involvement and ARDS associated with TEN are discussed.
