Although clinical and epidemiological findings suggest group A beta-hemolytic streptococci (GABHS) as the cause of an episode of acute pharyngitis, the diagnosis must rely on bacteriologic confirmation (either a throat culture or rapid antigen detection test). Penicillin is the drug of choice for ...
Forty-five patients with a history of recurrent tonsillitis associated with Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal (GABHS) infection participated in a prospective, randomized study comparing penicillin, erythromycin, or clindamycin therapy. Surface tonsillar cultures were obtained before therapy, 10 days aft...

However, resistance to penicillin (and beta-lactams in general) has been increasing, as documented in studies done in the United States, Hong Kong, and Japan. [20, 21, 31] Group B streptococci have never been as sensitive to penicillin as group A β-hemolytic streptococci; therefore, the ...
The accurate detection and treatment of group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal pharyngitis is important to prevent the potential sequels. Throat culture remains the gold standard for the diagnosis of streptococcal pharyngitis. Many authors recommended 48 h incubation time for the isolation of group A Str...

Among the less noted, but potentially life-threatening, complications are the development of subcutaneous emphysema and the presence of bacteremia due to group A hemolytic streptococci. In this report, we describe a severely complicated clinical course after an uncomplicated adenotonsillectomy in a ...
