Docetaxel-Induced Stevens-Johnson Syndrome in a Patient with Metastatic Prostate Adenocarcinoma

الملخص EN

Docetaxel is a commonly used chemotherapeutic agent in a variety of cancer treatment regimens.

We present a case of apparent docetaxel-induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) in a patient recently treated for metastatic prostate cancer.

This medication is not classically associated with the development of SJS but in our case, along with a number of other case reports, and a single phase II clinical trial, an association was recognized.

We encourage clinicians who employ the use of this medication to be aware of this relationship.
