Natalia Teplova, Head of the Y.B. Belousov Department of Clinical Pharmacology at ICM, dedicated her speech to Stevens—Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), rare life—threatening diseases of the skin and mucous membranes, most often caused by taking medications. She noted that modern medicine considers these conditions as a single immunopathological process in which genetic and immunological factors play a key role.

Anton Safonov, an assistant at the Y.B. Belousov Department of Clinical Pharmacology at ICM, presented an analysis of a clinical case, noting the complexity of managing comorbid patients and emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary approach to treatment.

Olga Kisel, a dermatovenerologist at the N.V. Sklifosovsky DZM Research Institute of Medicine, spoke about toxic-allergic blistering dermatoses, the most severe forms of which are Stevens—Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, presenting a number of proposals for their treatment.

Gulnara Zaripova, Associate Professor of the Belousov Department of Clinical Pharmacology at ICM, noted in her report that Stevens—Johnson syndrome and TEN remain a serious medical problem requiring constant updating of clinical recommendations, the introduction of personalized and targeted approaches to therapy, as well as the development of interdisciplinary collaboration.

The results of the analysis were summed up by the head of the Department of Hospital Therapy named after Academician P.E. Lukomsky ICM Ivan Gordeev, who suggested that the clinical discussions focus on the practical side of the issue.
