我们描述了两例早期中毒性休克综合征，由耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌产生的超抗原引起，并根据T细胞受体vbeta2阳性T细胞的扩增进行诊断。1例患者出现非典型症状。我们的结果表明，诊断系统结合实验室技术是必不可少的快速，明确诊断中毒性休克综合征。
We describe two cases of early toxic shock syndrome, caused by the superantigen produced from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and diagnosed on the basis of an expansion of T-cell-receptor Vbeta2-positive T cells. One case-patient showed atypical symptoms. Our results indicate that diagnostic systems incorporating laboratory techniques are essential for rapid, definitive diagnosis of toxic shock syndrome.
