DRESS syndrome (drug rash, eosinophilia and systemic symptoms) is an idiosyncratic drug reaction characterised by rash, fever, lymphadenopathy and internal organ involvement. The authors report a case of this syndrome presenting with fever, generalised pruritus, macular rash and cholestatic hepatitis during allopurinol treatment. This case resolved with drug withdrawal, but the death rate in the setting of hepatic failure can reach 10%. Rapid diagnosis is crucial as prompt withdrawal of the offending drug is the key of the treatment, while the potential role of corticosteroids remains controversial.
药物超敏反应伴嗜酸性粒细胞增多和全身症状(DRESS综合征)是一种特异质性药物反应,其特征为皮疹、发热、淋巴结病和内脏器官受累。作者报告了1例在使用别嘌醇治疗期间出现发热、全身性瘙痒、斑丘疹和胆汁淤积性肝炎的该综合征病例。该病例经停药后痊愈,但肝衰竭情况下的死亡率可达10%。快速诊断至关重要,因为迅速停用致病药物是治疗的关键,而皮质类固醇的潜在作用仍存在争议。
