Staphylococcal Scalded Skin Syndrome (SSSS) is a disease primarily of young children, characterized by exfoliative dermatitis caused by exfoliative toxin producing Staphylococcus aureus. We had three cases of SSSS with varied dermatological manifestations-diffuse/scarlitiniform erythema, generalized exfoliation, sand paper skin texture, flaccid bullae, erosions, seborrheic dermatitis like scaling and cracking in skin creases which can be confused with other skin conditions. Hence, a high index of suspicion, early diagnosis and prompt treatment is imperative.
葡萄球菌性烫伤样皮肤综合征（SSSS）主要发生于幼儿，其特征为由产剥脱毒素的金黄色葡萄球菌引起的剥脱性皮炎。我们有3例SSSS患者，其皮肤表现各异——弥漫性/猩红热样红斑、全身性剥脱、砂纸样皮肤纹理、松弛性大疱、糜烂、脂溢性皮炎样脱屑以及皮肤皱褶处皲裂，这些表现可能会与其他皮肤疾病相混淆。因此，必须高度怀疑、早期诊断并及时治疗。
