Sometimes, however, examination of affected tissue under the microscope may be needed to distinguish it between other entities such as [[staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome]]. Typical histological criteria of TEN include mild infiltrate of lymphocytes which may obscure the dermoepidermal junction and prominent cell death with basal vacuolar change and individual cell necrosis.<ref>{{cite journal |author=Pereira FA, Mudgil AV, Rosmarin DM |title=Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis |journal=J Am Acad Dermatol |volume=56 |issue=2 |pages=181-200 |year=2007 |pmid=17224365}}</ref>
