Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a rare disease in which extensive toxic epidermolysis occurs after medication. Skin and mucous membranes are involved in about 90% of SJS cases, and webbing of mouth corners (microstomia) may occur when they are affected. Few reports have been issued on microstomia in SJS, and no consensus has been reached regarding treatment methods, timings, or results. We encountered a case of microstomia following SJS after ofloxacin medication in a 22-year-old woman treated by commissuroplasty using a lozenge-shaped excision. We present an appropriate correction method and surgical timing for microstomia following SJS.

Steven-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis(TEN) are severe mucocutaneous reaction which are most frequently caused by drugs. Although the incidence of SJS and TEN is known to be relatively low, outcomes may be fatal. A systematic approach is required because morbidity rate is currently increasing and oral lesion is frequent. We investigated the clinical features and outcomes of 6 patients diagnosed as SJS and TEN and referred from the department of dermatology, Chonnam National University Hospital for oral care. Ketoconazol, Ofloxacin, Chlorphenesin, Amoxicillin, Pontal, Harnal, and Ciprofloxacin were suspected as the causative drugs. Average treatment period was 3.2 weeks, and two patients were referred to 'burn-patients' hospital. Most of oral lesion were cured be normal tissue, but scares with discoloration were observed. For intraoral management, antibiotic disinfection and steroid application were performed according to systemic treatment principles. Additionally, ingestion of zinc, antioxidants, and vitamin was recommended. The establishment of oral treatment principles is demanded because it has not been yet. Also, through investigation of drug side effect and careful prescription are required.

M. pnuemonia 감염은 사람에서 사람으로 전파되며 모든 연령의 소아에서 발생할 수 있으나 주로 학동기, 젊은 성인에서 하부 호흡기 계통의 질환을 유발하여 인두염, 기관지염, 모세기관지염, 크루프, 폐렴의 질환을 유발한다. M. pneumoniae 는 호흡기 감염 외에도 다양한 장기에 감염을 일으키며 합병증으로 다형홍반, Steven-Johnson syndrome, 수막뇌염, 무균성 수막염, 간염, 관절염, 심근염, 용혈성 빈혈 등이 발생할 수 있다. M. pneumoniae 의해 발생하는 신경계 합병증의 병태생리는 아직 명확하게 밝혀지지 않았으며 여러가지 가설이 제시되고 있다. 저자들은 M. pneumoniae 에 의한 중추 신경계 합병증으로 뇌염과 뇌경색의 각각 1례를 경험 하였기에 이를 보고하고자 한다.
