Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome in the Czech Republic: an epidemiological study

Original language description

Objective To identify the basic epidemiological characteristics of children hospitalized with diagnosis of Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome in the Czech Republic in the years 1994?2009. Introduction Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) is a relatively rare disease in childhood. This syndrome was first defined in 1878 by Baron Gottfried Ritter von Rittershainem and belongs to the group of diseases called Burn-like syndromes. It is a bullous skin disease caused by exfoliative toxins which are produced by certain types of Staphyloccocus aureus. Typical structures affected by these toxins are desmosome proteins called Desmoglein-1 located in the stratum granulosum of epidermis. Unlike in Lyell's syndrome or Stevens-Johnson's syndrome, the exfoliation is caused by loss of adhesivity particularly in the stratum granulosum and not by induction of apoptosis in the dermo-epidermal junction.
