Özet
Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is a rare but life-threatening multisystem adverse reaction to a medication, with vancomycin being one of the most common cause reported. We present the HLA analysis of a pediatric patient who developed DRESS related to vancomycin and compared the results with the available literature. With further data, the use of pretreatment HLA analysis to prevent vancomycin related DRESS may be a valuable option in the near future.
