摘要
化脓性链球菌(A 组β-溶血性链球菌,GABHS)会引起一系列人类感染,包括坏死性筋膜炎和中毒性休克综合征,因为它产生的外毒素会破坏宿主细胞,促进免疫逃避,并成为 T 细胞的超级抗原。GABHS 结膜炎非常罕见。我们报告了一例 3 岁儿童的膜性结膜炎病例,该病例接受了靶向杀菌抗菌剂、毒素合成抑制剂和羊膜移植的综合治疗。
Amniotic membrane transplantation as part of a multimodal management approach to Streptococcus pyogenes necrotizing keratoconjunctivitis
Streptococcus pyogenes (group A beta-hemolytic Streptococcus, GABHS) causes a range of human infections, including necrotizing fasciitis and toxic shock syndrome, because it produces exotoxins that damage host cells, facilitate immune evasion, and serve as T cell superantigens. GABHS conjunctivitis is rare. We report a case of membranous conjunctivitis in a 3-year-old child who was treated with a combination of targeted bactericidal antimicrobials, toxin-synthesis inhibition, and amniotic membrane transplantation.
