Recurrent staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome in a 20-month old-A case report.

We present a case of a 20-month-old child with a history of atopic dermatitis that exhibited recurrent erythematous-bullous lesions consistent with Staphylococcal Scalded Skin syndrome (SSSS). SSSS is an exfoliative toxin-mediated skin disorder most commonly found in children. In this paper, we discuss the importance of recognizing the clinical symptomatology and progressive nature of SSSS, particularly in patients with a history of atopic dermatitis, to ensure prompt treatment and resolution of the syndrome.
