SNOMED CT Concept\Body structure (body structure)\Anatomical or acquired body structure (body structure)\Anatomical structure\...

\An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Skin structure

An extended form of toxic epidermal necrolysis with characteristics of destruction and detachment of the skin epithelium and mucous membranes involving more than 30% of the body surface area. Lyell syndrome can be triggered by a drug allergy and, exceptionally, by infections or bone marrow transplantation. In 25 to 30% of cases, the cause is unclear. Patients should be admitted to an intensive care or burns unit as soon as the diagnosis is suspected. Prognosis is poor (mortality rate: 20-25%).

It may progress rapidly to multi-organ failure caused by thrombotic occlusion of small and medium-sized blood vessels. There are two forms of the disorder that are classified according to triggering mechanisms: acute infectious (the most common form), and idiopathic purpura fulminans.
