Аннотация
HISTORY AND CLINICAL FINDINGS: We report on a 34-year-old female patient and a 50-year-old male patient, both of whom were admitted to our emergency department with severe septic conditions.
MEDICAL EXAMINATIONS: Both patients were resuscitated and exhibited clinical as well as laboratory evidence of a severe bacterial infection.
DIAGNOSIS: Both patients had an invasive infection with Group A Streptococcus. The female patient had a Streptococcal sepsis with severe pneumonia, while the male patient had a Streptococcus-induced necrotizing fasciitis of the upper extremity.
THERAPY AND COURSE: While the female patient unfortunately died in the emergency department`s resuscitation room despite all intensive medical treatments, the male patient survived after prompt surgical therapy and an extended stay in the intensive care unit.
CONCLUSION: Patients with invasive infections caused by Group A Streptococcus can deteriorate rapidly clinically. Prompt diagnosis and initiation of often interdisciplinary treatment are important. Nevertheless, these conditions can be fatal.
