We describe three cases of community-acquired necrotizing pneumonia which were caused by Panton-Valentine leucocidin-producing strains of Staphylococcus aureus (one of them methicillin sensitive). All cases were successfully treated without any sequelae for the patients due to the prompt initiation of adequate antimicrobial therapy. High suspicion toward this fatal pathogen was the key to the successful outcome of the patients.
我们描述了三例由产 Panton-Valentine 白细胞素的金黄色葡萄球菌（其中 1 例为甲氧西林敏感株）引起的社区获得性坏死性肺炎。由于及时开始了适当的抗菌治疗，所有病例均成功治愈，患者无任何后遗症。对这种致命病原体的高度怀疑是患者成功治疗的关键。
