title: Stevens-Johnson syndrome secondary to ingestion of salmon berries.
abstract: Stevens-Johnson syndrome is an immune mucocutaneous disorder which can follow viral infections, mycoplasma infections and the ingestion of some drugs. There is also evidence supporting this disease as a hypersensitivity disorder. We observed a four-year-old girl with Stevens-Johnson syndrome attributed to ingestion of salmon berries (Rubus spectabilis).
