Postinfluenza toxic shock syndrome is a recently described entity that results from a respiratory tract infection with toxin-producing Staphylococcus aureus following an episode of influenza or influenzalike illness. This report describes a 19-year-old man who developed an influenza B respiratory infection complicated by staphylococcal pneumonia and toxic shock syndrome. The patient improved rapidly with specific antibiotic therapy, emphasizing the importance of considering this otherwise highly lethal syndrome in any individual who becomes critically ill after an initial influenzalike illness.
流感后中毒性休克综合征是一种最近才被描述的病症，它由在流感或流感样疾病发作后发生的产毒素金黄色葡萄球菌呼吸道感染引起。本报告描述了一名19岁男性，他患上了乙型流感呼吸道感染，并并发葡萄球菌肺炎和中毒性休克综合征。该患者通过特异性抗生素治疗迅速康复，这强调了对于任何在最初的流感样疾病后病情危重的个体而言，考虑这种原本极具致死性的综合征的重要性。
