Streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) is an uncommon disorder characterised by hypotension and multiorgan failure in the setting of streptococcal infection. Recurrent STSS is rare and has been due to recurrence of the same streptococcal species. Here, we present a case of a patient who developed recurrent STSS from a right native joint septic arthritis and subsequently from a left native joint septic arthritis.
链球菌中毒性休克综合征(STSS)是一种不常见的疾病,其特征为在链球菌感染的情况下出现低血压和多器官功能衰竭。复发性 STSS 很少见,且一直是由相同的链球菌种复发引起的。在此,我们报告了一例患者,该患者先由右侧原发关节化脓性关节炎,后由左侧原发关节化脓性关节炎引起复发性 STSS。
