Toxic shock syndrome is a life-threatening exotoxin mediated disease caused by Staphylococcus aureus, which was originally described as affecting menstruating women, but has lately been reported after surgical procedures and burns. The high mortality emphasises the importance of early diagnosis. In most cases there is a prodromal period with fever (> 38.9 degrees C), myalgia, headache, and vomiting before the onset of hypotension and multiorgan failure. We present two cases in children with minor burns, and review current recommendations for treatment.
中毒性休克综合征是一种由金黄色葡萄球菌引起的、威胁生命的外毒素介导疾病，最初被描述为主要影响经期女性，但最近有报道称在外科手术和烧伤后也会出现。其高死亡率凸显了早期诊断的重要性。在大多数情况下，在出现低血压和多器官功能衰竭之前，会有一个前驱期，表现为发热（体温>38.9摄氏度）、肌痛、头痛和呕吐。我们报告两例轻度烧伤儿童病例，并综述当前的治疗建议。
