Pneumoniagroup A streptococcusSevereStreptococcus pyogenespneumonia can cause multiple cavitary lung lesions.This case involved STSS with bloodstream infection and necrotizing lesions.Early GAS pneumonia detection allows prompt clindamycin use for better outcomes....
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) or Streptococcus pyogenes, affects an estimated 800 million people each year. Most of the resulting estimated 639,000 annual deaths are related to rheumatic heart disease (RHD) and its complications. Resource-limited areas account for the vast majority of cases, althoug...
Group A Streptococcus (Strep A) is a human-exclusive bacterial pathogen killing annually more than 500,000 patients, and no current licensed vaccine exists. Strep A bacteria are highly diverse, but all produce an essential, abundant, and conserved surfac
Group A streptococcus (GAS) is known to cause a broad spectrum of illness, from pharyngitis and impetigo, to autoimmune sequelae such as rheumatic heart disease, and invasive diseases. It is a significant cause of infectious disease morbidity and mortality worldwide, but no efficacious vaccine is...

Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A Streptococcus; (GAS)) is an uncommon but potentially dangerous cause of community-acquired pneumonia. Our aim was to determine the incidence, natural history, and clinical impact of GAS infections in CF and phenotypically and genotypically characterize the isolates. ...
We present the magnetic resonance imaging findings of a rare case of a child with empyema necessitatis due to a group A streptococcal agent. The aggressive findings make differentiating infection from a tumor difficult. 展开 关键词: pneumonia empyema pediatric magnetic resonance imaging ...
