Toxic shock syndrome.

R Buchdahl, M Levin, B Wilkins, J Gould, P Jaffe, D J Matthew, M J Dillon

Presenting features and clinical manifestations of six patients with toxic shock syndrome are reported. In four of the six cutaneous injury, sometimes trivial, occurred before the onset of symptoms and may have been a causal factor. All six children recovered. The need for early recognition and intensive management in this life threatening condition is discussed.
