Abstract
This letter illustrates a case of toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) after COVID-19 mRNA-1273 vaccination, which corresponds with the existing published data and contributes detailed knowledge of TEN reaction after vaccination. Interestingly, the reaction started at the site of vaccination and the patient went on to tolerate a major excipient of the vaccine suggesting the reaction may be associated with the mRNA itself or is triggered by the immunostimulatory action of the vaccine.
