ABSTRACT
Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) is a disease caused by certain toxigenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus. While the classic severe phenotype is widely recognized in children, SSSS in fact exists on a spectrum with mild and moderate variants. Misunderstanding the phenotypic spectrum of SSSS may result in misdiagnosis of an otherwise treatable condition. To increase awareness of the heterogeneity of SSSS, we report four cases that together represent a range of clinical presentations.
