The incidence of invasive group A Streptococcus (GAS) disease can vary over time and geographic region, possibly reflecting the population's susceptibility to particular strains but also variation in the predominant M/emm types. Canadian surveillance documented an epidemic of an uncommon M/emm59 type...
These are common suppurative complications of streptococcal tonsillopharyngitis. [2] They are caused by the spread of organisms via the eustachian tube (otitis media) or by direct spread to the sinuses (sinusitis). Nonsuppurative disease spectrum Acute rheumatic fever ARF is a delayed, nonsuppurati...
