Letter to the Editor concerning the article “Long term complications of Stevens-Johnson syndrome/Toxic epidermal necrolysis: The spectrum of chronic problems in patients who survive an episode of SJS/TEN necessitates multi-disciplinary follow up

We read with great interest, the review paper by Lee et al. on the long term complications of Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis. We would like to congratulate the authors on this important and excellent overview. This review demonstrated that SJS/TEN has a severe, chronic phase with major physical morbidities. We wish to raise awareness to the major emotional complications among survivors; as was found in our study published in the British Journal of Dermatology by Dodiuk-Gad et al.
