Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis are fatal adverse skin reactions characterized by high fever, epidermal detachment, and mucositis. Selpercatinib is a highly selective inhibitor of tyrosine kinase, rearranged during transfection (RET), and is the first targeted therapy for solid tumors with RET gene alteration. The main adverse events of selpercatinib include hypertension, liver dysfunction, diarrhea, and QT prolongation on electrocardiograms. We present the case of 50-year-old male with medullary thyroid carcinoma who was treated with selpercatinib. On the 12th day of the treatment, he developed widespread erythema, which resulted in a referral to our department. Physical examination revealed disseminated erythematous macules, conjunctival congestion, and bloody crusting of the lips, and histopathological examination showed single-cell necrosis in epidermis. Based on these findings, he was diagnosed with SJS. After the discontinuation of selpercatinib and systemic administration of corticosteroids, his symptoms were improved. The patient showed positivity for selpercatinib in drug lymphocyte stimulation test, suggesting the diagnosis of SJS induced by selpercatinib. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of SJS caused by selpercatinib. We herein present and discuss this case to raise awareness.

BACKGROUND: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cutaneous malignancy. BCCs occur mainly in exposed areas, such as the face and scalp. Therefore, surgical resection with narrow margins is highly desirable. However, narrow margins may increase the risk of positive histopathological margins. Outcomes for such treatment might be unfavorable, but evidence for such a conclusion is lacking. METHODS: Between April 2015 and November 2023, a total of 230 Japanese cases with BCC which underwent surgical resection with 2-mm, 3-mm, or 5-mm margins were followed in our hospital. We conducted a retrospective review that focused on the recurrence rate and histopathological margins. RESULTS: Recurrence was recorded if the follow-up time was longer than 3 months. One of the 198 cases (0.5%) developed a recurrence. The mean lateral and deep histopathological margins were 2,525.4 μm (30.8-14,034.6 μm) and 3,409 μm (199.9-16,523.6 μm), respectively. Recurrence rate was associated with tumor size and clinical tumor border. However, histopathological margin was not associated with recurrence rate, even when it was less than 1,000 μm. CONCLUSIONS: A narrow histopathological margin is acceptable for surgical resection of BCC in Japanese patients.
