Popis: INTRODUCTION The distinction between epidermal necrolysis [EN; including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) and overlap syndrome] and erythema multiforme major (EMM) in children is confusing. We aimed to better describe and compare these entities. MATERIALS AND METHODS This French retrospective multicentre study included children ≤18 years old referred for EN or EMM between 1 January 2008 and 1 March 2019.
