- W3128657984 abstract "Streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) is a severe infection most commonly caused by group A streptococcus. It is clinically characterized by rapidly progressive multiple organ failure and septic shock. This report presents four fatal cases associated with STSS. In two cases (cases 2 and 3), the portals of entry may be ulcer and mucosa at the surgical site; the initial symptoms in these cases included fever. In the other cases, the portal of entry was unknown; the initial symptom was pain. In two cases (cases 1 and 3), malpractice was suspected before autopsy. At autopsy, blood culture was positive for group A streptococcus in all of the present cases. Although C-reactive protein levels were increased, procalcitonin levels were not markedly elevated. This is the first report of autopsy cases associated with STSS in which postmortem computed tomography was performed; the swelling of muscles and increased concentrations of peripheral subcutaneous tissue without gas may be characteristic findings. Histology revealed extensive bacterial colonies and necrosis with mild neutrophilic reaction in two cases (cases 3 and 4), and hemophagocytosis in two cases (cases 1 and 4). It is essential to perform appropriate examinations and make a proper diagnosis because STSS still has a high fatality rate and medical malpractice is often suspected. In addition, it is important to evaluate STSS again for the reduction of the fatal cases associated with STSS." @default.
