Lyell's syndrome, also known as toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), is a drug-related dermatological disorder characterized by epidermal sloughing, mucous membrane involvement, fever, pain, and systemic symptoms. In TEN topical treatment minimizes heat and fluid loss, prevents infections, reduces pain, and provides a moist, clean wound environment suitable for re-epithelialization. We tested a new material (Veloderm®, BTC srl, Ancona, Italy) consisting of a natural cellulose-microfibre biofilm, the effectiveness and excellent tolerability of which has been described in the treatment of burns and superficial wounds.

Abstract
Lyell's syndrome, also known as toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), is a drug-related dermatological disorder characterized by epidermal sloughing, mucous membrane involvement, fever, pain, and systemic symptoms. In TEN topical treatment minimizes heat and fluid loss, prevents infections, reduces pain, and provides a moist, clean wound environment suitable for re-epithelialization. We tested a new material (Veloderm®, BTC srl, Ancona, Italy) consisting of a natural cellulose-microfibre biofilm, the effectiveness and excellent tolerability of which has been described in the treatment of burns and superficial wounds.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
