Abstract

Exfoliative dermatitis or erythroderma is a clinical syndrome characterized by widespread erythema, fine or large scales, and desquamation of a significant portion of the body surface. Appropriate management of the patient during the acute phase of erythroderma requires a firm understanding of the pathophysiology and consequences of this clinical syndrome.
