Abstract

The group G streptococcus (GGS) is a rare cause of deep soft-tissue infection. We report that we believe is the first case of acute diffuse GGS myositis in association with toxic shock. Although the causative organism did not contain the genes for group A streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxins (SPEs) or make SPEs, the organism produced at least one new toxin that shared the biologic properties of the SPEs.

摘要

G 群链球菌（GGS）是深部软组织感染的罕见病因。我们报告了我们认为是首例与中毒性休克相关的急性弥漫性 GGS 肌炎病例。尽管致病微生物不含有 A 群链球菌致热外毒素（SPEs）的基因，也不产生 SPEs，但该微生物产生了至少一种具有 SPEs 生物学特性的新毒素。
