Abstract

LALANA JOSA, P.; GALINDO RUBIO, C.; CARO REBOLLO, J.  and  LACLAUSTRA MENDIZABAL, B.. Staphylococcal scarlet fever as a mild manifestation of Staphylococcal Scalded Skin Syndrome. Rev Pediatr Aten Primaria [online]. 2013, vol.15, n.57, pp.65-67. ISSN 1139-7632.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1139-76322013000100010.

We report the case of a four years old child with fever, adenopathies, pharyngitis and scarlet micropapular exanthema. He was treated with amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and he had a favourable outcome. Staphylococcus aureus was isolated from his throat. Two weeks later he presented exfoliation. It seems to be an abortive form of Staphylococcal Scalded Skin Syndrome.

Keywords : Staphylococcal scarlet fever; Staphylococcal skin diseases; Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome; Exfoliative syndromes.
