摘要

To investigate clinical and microbiological features of streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS), clinical, epidemiological, and bacteriological data obtained from 250 patients between 1992 and 2001 were analyzed. Among these 250 cases, 16 cases were excluded from the study because the causative microorganism were not Streptococcus pyogenes. 234 strains of S. pyogenes obtained from the aforementioned 234 cases were tested for T-type by a serological method, and for streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxin (SPE) by in vitro productivity of the toxin as well as molecular genetic methods. The number of patients was 141 (56.4%) for males, and 107 (42.8%) for females. The highest frequency of STSS was observed in those patients in their sixties in both sexes. The overall mortality rate was 43.2%. The mortality rate for male was 36.9%, and 52.3% for female. Bacteriological studies revealed that most common T types were T1 and T3. These strains consisted 54.3% of the strains collected. Among strains of T1 type, 98.8% possessed genes of spe A, and 46.1% were shown to produce SPE A in vitro. Among strains of T3 type, 82.9% possessed spe A gene, and all of these strains were shown to produce the toxin in vitro. It is concluded that certain strains of S. pyogenes, such as those with T1, or T3 type, and those with spe A gene or in vitro production of SPE A, are the most frequent cause of STSS. Although infections caused by such bacteria are quite common, STSS rarely occurs in most such patients. Additional factors, such as host factors, may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of STSS.
