Abstract
|
|
|
Coma-induced bullae and sweat gland necrosis is a rare clinicopathologic entity often associated with alcohol intake
or drug abuse (barbiturate and benzodiazepine overdose). Local pressure and hypoxia are considered to be important
causative factors. But, the exact pathogenesis remains unknown. Herein, we report a case with clinical and histologic
findings characteristic of blisters and sweat gland necrosis occurring in a drug-induced comatose patient. (Korean J
