Vaginal adhesions caused by Stevens-Johnson syndrome

Stevens-Johnson syndrome is a rare, life-threatening condition characterized by epidermal necrosis and involvement of the mucosal surfaces. We report a case of Stevens-Johnson syndrome with vaginal involvement in an 11-yr-old girl who was treated conservatively in the acute stage of the disease. After recovery from the profound systemic upset, she underwent vaginoscopy, which demonstrated some adhesions, which were divided. We recommend that all patients with Stevens-Johnson syndrome with vaginal involvement undergo routine follow-up to evaluate possible adhesions.
