我们描述了一个2.5岁的儿童中毒性休克综合征由于A组β-溶血性链球菌（GABHS）谁提出了暴发性紫癜和肢体缺血治疗早期显微动脉溶解。中毒性休克综合征（TSS）的临床表现为暴发性紫癜和肢体缺血是一个非常罕见的发现败血症由于GABHS。这是欧洲报道的第一例由GABHS引起的暴发性紫癜，也是文献中描述的第三例（Dhodapkar等人，2000[1]; Renaud等人，2011[2]）。(C)2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
We describe a 2.5 year-old child with toxic shock syndrome due to group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus (GABHS) who presented with purpura fulminans and limb ischemia treated with early microsurgical arteriolysis. The clinical picture of toxic shock syndrome (TSS) presenting with purpura fulminans and limb ischemia is an exceptionally uncommon finding in sepsis due to GABHS. This is the first case of purpura fulminans caused by GABHS reported in Europe and the third one described in the literature (Dhodapkar et al., 2000[1]; Renaud et a., 2011[2]). (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc.
