title: Bronchiolitis obliterans: a rare chronic pulmonary complication associated with Stevens-Johnson syndrome.

We report two boys with bronchiolitis obliterans following the acute phase of Stevens-Johnson syndrome and discuss the clinical picture and treatment of persistent pulmonary complications with reference to earlier reports.
