In patient 1 the syndrome was associated with the development of necrotizing fasciitis following inguinal hernia repair. Patient 2 suffered from StrepTSS shortly after receiving a tetanus vaccine in her left deltoid. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Group A streptococci were cultured from both blood and pus aspirate from knee joint. The patient had signs of STSS. Early radical drainage debridement plus appropriate antibiotic therapy altered the usual devastating outcome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Laboratory findings include: leucocytosis, Gram-stain smears from an aspirate or debrided tissue containing Gram-positive cocci, elevated creatine kinase (in NF/myositis) and bacteraemia. [frca.co.uk]

Phase 2: During this stage, the initial symptoms of phase 1 continue, with the addition of systemic derangements such as onset of tachycardia and tachypnea. If pain is present due to a focal infection, it may continue to increase in severity. [clinicaladvisor.com]

Several hours after admission, leg pain and purpura-like skin color appeared. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Despite improved circulation over the next 2 days, he developed oliguria, progressive fluid overload, generalised oedema and a right-sided pleural effusion. Dialysis was commenced on day 3 of admission. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
