Özet

© 2019 by Pediatric Infectious Diseases and Immunization Society.Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) is a disease caused by the exfoliative toxin of Staphylococcus aureus. There is an overall incidence of SSSS between 0.09 and 0.13 cases per 1 million inhabitants annually. The accurate incidence of SSSS in immune deficient population is not known, and it is supposed that it is very rare; only a few case reports particularly in adult patients have been reported. In this study, we present a patient with a diagnosis of acute lymphocytic leukemia who developed SSSS after suppurative otitis media during febrile neutropenia attack.
