Abstract
Acute pulmonary complications following Steven Johnson syndrome (SJS) are well recognized, in contrast, few cases have been reported describing chronic pulmonary complications [1]. We present a case of severe bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) with unique bronchoscopic findings following SJS overlapping with other triggers. Verbal consent was obtained from the caregiver prior to writing this case report.
