Abstract
Drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), also known as hypersensitivity syndrome, is an idiosyncratic drug reaction presenting with fever, diffuse lymphadenopathy, exfoliative dermatitis, and visceral involvement, which may include hepatitis, pneumonitis, pericarditis, myocarditis, nephritis, and colitis. This report describes a 19-year-old, previously healthy man with manifestations of hypersensitivity (DRESS) syndrome after acquiring a titanium bioprosthesis for a spinal fracture. To our knowledge, there have been no prior reports of DRESS syndrome in association with titanium bioprosthetic implants.
