Fuchs' syndrome (Stevens-Johnson syndrome without skin involvement) in an adult male - a case report and general characteristics of the sporadically diagnosed disease

Original language description

Fuchs' syndrome (Stevens-Johnson syndrome without skin involvement) is a sporadically diagnosed disease. Most authors consider it to be a pure mucosal variant of Stevens-Johnson syndrome; however, some consider the syndrome as a separate entity. Usually,complete absence of cutaneous symptoms may be the reason that not all cases of Fuchs' syndrome are diagnosed and properly classified. The authors describe a case of a 22-year-old patient suffering only from mucosal symptoms, diagnosed as Fuchs' syndromefrom the context of the tests performed. A Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection triggered the disease onset. Mycoplasma infection, as a trigger factor of Fuchs' syndrome in adults, has so far been described in only a few isolated cases worldwide.
